    The Benjamin N. Duke House from “The First Wives Club”

    ‘ They say revenge is a dish best served cold.  Well, I think revenge movies are a dish best served with a side of comedy.  The Other Woman?  9 to 5?  The Sting?  The First Wives Club?  All perfection!  The latter is one of my ultimate favorites, so when I saw the address of the…

  • A Free View of Universal Studio’s “War of the Worlds” Set!

    A Free View of Universal Studio’s “War of the Worlds” Set!

    ‘ Many moons ago, shortly after we first met, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me to a place that quickly became one of my very favorite “only in L.A.” spots –  a residential street from which the Universal Studios War of the Worlds plane crash set is visible.  And even though I always make it a…

  • Frances’ House from “Behind the Candelabra”

    Frances’ House from “Behind the Candelabra”

    ‘ One Behind the Candelabra location that I was not able to stalk two weekends ago was the palatial Palm Springs abode belonging to Frances Liberace (Debbie Reynolds), the flamboyant pianist’s overbearing mother, in the 2013 HBO biopic.  So I dragged the Grim Cheaper right on out to do so this past Saturday morning.  And,…

  • The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

    The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

    ‘ I stalk so many places, typically in quick succession, that oftentimes a few get lost in the shuffle.  Such was the case with The Blind Donkey, an Old Town Pasadena whiskey bar that I visited back in April, shortly before the Grim Cheaper and I headed off to New York, and then promptly forgot…

    Shannen Doherty’s Former Mulholland Drive Rental

    ‘ Another locale that I found thanks to Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites, the fabulous book written by my buddy E.J. of The Movieland Directory, was the house at 13459 Mulholland Drive that was once rented by my girl Shannen Doherty and that was also the location of her ill-fated 1993 nuptials to Ashley Hamilton,…

    Our Wedding Photographer – Rob Greer

    ‘ Deciding the order in which to publish the various blog posts that I am planning to write about the different movie/filming location elements of my wedding has proved to be a bit of a challenge for me.  Today’s entry was originally going to be about our invitations, but then I realized that I can’t…

  • The “Thirteen Days” House

    The “Thirteen Days” House

    ‘ While I mentioned last week that today’s blog would be most likely be about the Cabo San Lucas rocks where Jennifer Aniston posed for her recent Jennifer Aniston Perfume advertisement, I’ve actually decided to postpone that post until a later date and instead write about a location that can be found right here in…

  • Off Limits Cocktail Lounge from “Rosewood”

    Off Limits Cocktail Lounge from “Rosewood”

    ‘ I’m still in quite a bit of shock – not to mention completely heartbroken – over the recent cancellation of Rosewood.  The cancellation was especially stinging being that there are a couple of locations from the former Fox series that I stalked, but have yet to blog about – namely Off Limits cocktail lounge,…

    On Set With the “American Idol” Contestants

    ‘ This past Sunday, while doing some stalking in Downtown L.A., my fiancé and I happened upon the current American Idol contestants filming a Ford commercial on the corner of South Hope Street and Wilshire Boulevard.  And even though I have yet to watch even one episode of the series this season, I begged my…

  • Neptune’s Net from “The Hills”

    Neptune’s Net from “The Hills”

    ‘ One location that had been at the top of my To-Stalk list for a couple of years, but had, for whatever reason, remained unstalked was Neptune’s Net – an oft-filmed-at eatery and Malibu institution that was featured on one of my favorite shows of all time, The Hills, in a scene featuring none other…
