The El Torito Grill from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”
‘ As I have mentioned numerous times before on this blog, this stalker has absolutely obsessed herself silly over the movie Crazy, Stupid, Love. So when I discovered, thanks to the flick’s exceedingly extensive production notes, that a couple of scenes had been filmed at the El Torito Grill in the Sherman Oaks Galleria, I…

Judy’s House from “Bridesmaids”
‘ The one location from Bridesmaids that I was most determined to track down – the one that I would not stop bugging poor Mike, from MovieShotsLA, about – was the yellow ranch-style dwelling where Annie’s (Kristen Wigg’s) mom, Judy (Jill Clayburgh, who was ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE in the role, which was, sadly, her last), lived…

The Ladies’ Villa from Season 1 of “The Bachelor”
‘ Another location that I became obsessed with tracking down thanks to the Best of The Bachelor DVD that my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, recently gifted me was the so-called “Ladies’ Villa” – the Mediterranean-style manse where the female contestants lived during the filming of the popular reality series’ inaugural…

Alverno High School from “Passport to Paris”
‘ As I promised in Tuesday’s post, here is a photograph of me dressed as Buffy the Vampire Slayer for Halloween back in 1992. My mom made the costume for me by hand and she made it absolutely PERFECT, so I was especially excited to tell Kristy Swanson about it when I met her this…

Another Day Off!
‘ Yes, I am taking yet another day off! But I have a good excuse – a fellow stalker named Sara was in town visiting from Switzerland and I spent all day yesterday stalking with her. And then last night Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, and I attended a screening of The…

Frankie’s House from “People Like Us”
‘ As I mentioned in early November in my post about Henry’s Tacos, I did not especially love the 2012 movie People Like Us as I found it to be a bit too depressing. What I did love, though, was the fact that the flick was filmed in its entirety in L.A. So after watching,…

The Beverly Beat
‘ Thanks to my good friend Mike over at MovieShotsLA I was able to stalk Brandon and Steve’”‘”‘s newspaper office from the original Beverly Hills, 90210 series. On the final years of the original 90210, Brandon and Steve ran their own newspaper called “The Beverly Beat” and the location of the newspaper office had eluded…

The Numb3rs House
‘ Ever since the pilot episode of the TV show aired back in 2005, I was totally obsessed with finding the location of Charlie’”‘”‘s large Craftsman style house. American Craftsman Style architecture became popular towards the end of the 19th Century and usually combines huge front porches, handcrafted woodwork and clean lines. Craftsman houses are…

The Hotel St. James
‘ The one location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, told me I could absolutely NOT come home from New York without stalking was the seedy hotel where Josh Baskin (aka Tom Hanks) stayed after first becoming “big” in the 1988 movie of the same name. Mike had found the location of the Hotel St. James thanks…

"He Tied Me to a Chair and Stole My Car!"
‘ On Thanksgiving my mom and I did a little stalking in South Pasadena – we aren’”‘”‘t much for football games or the Macy’”‘”‘s Thanksgiving Day parade. 🙂 Anyway, one of the places we stalked was John Voight’”‘”‘s home from the movies National Treasure and National Treasure : Book of Secrets. Mike, from MovieShotsLA ,…
