    Tacos Jalisco from “A Star Is Born”

    ‘ Stumbling upon filmings used to be a regular occurrence when I lived in L.A.  Sadly, that is not the case in Palm Springs.  So I was thrilled – and shocked – to happen upon A Star Is Born being shot at desert eatery Tacos Jalisco while on a Windmill Tour with the Grim Cheaper…

  • The Michael Buble Crazy Love Concert

    The Michael Buble Crazy Love Concert

    ‘ As I have mentioned countless times before on this blog, this stalker is one hundred percent, head over heels in love with cutie crooner Michael Buble.  In fact, my fiancé and I are currently in the midst of creating our wedding slide show and the vast majority of songs I picked out to play…

  • The Dutch Chocolate Shop from “Castle”

    The Dutch Chocolate Shop from “Castle”

    ‘ I am an extremely excitable person.  A visit to Disneyland, randomly running in to a friend, a surprise sale at a favorite store, unexpected access to an off-limits filming location – all can send me into a tailspin.  Such was the case last week when the Grim Cheaper and I were driving to stalk…

  • We’re Moving!

    We’re Moving!

    ‘ As I mentioned in Monday’s post, the Grim Cheaper and I are moving this week.  (Hopefully we won’t have any moments like this!)  So blog posts will likely be few and far between over the next couple of weeks until we get settled.  Hopefully I’ll be back up and running sooner rather than later,…

  • The “Hangover” House

    The “Hangover” House

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up to let me know that he was on the hunt for the main house used in fave movie The Hangover.  The two of us both had a pretty good inkling that the residence was located somewhere in the Pasadena area, we just weren’t sure…

  • Commerce Restaurant

    Commerce Restaurant

    ‘ One of the locations that I was most excited about stalking while in New York this past month was a little restaurant named Commerce which appeared in the very last episode of fave show Sex and the City.  Well, truth be told, at the time SATC was filmed, the restaurant was known as Grange…

  • Courteney Cox’s House from “Cougar Town”

    Courteney Cox’s House from “Cougar Town”

    ‘ While on the West Side of L.A. doing some stalking this past weekend, I dragged my fiancé out to see a few of the houses featured on one of my favorite new shows of the fall season, Cougar Town.   Now I know I’ve used the word “favorite” to describe more than one new show…

    Hop Louie from “I Love You, Man”

    ‘ Los Angeles suffered numerous iconic restaurant closures in 2017 – Auntie Em’s Kitchen in Eagle Rock, Happy Trails Catering in Pasadena (I was particularly heartbroken over that one), and the Formosa Cafe in West Hollywood (though it is set to re-open this summer), just to name a few.  2017 also saw the final shuttering…

  • The Trenton Family Home from “Cujo”

    The Trenton Family Home from “Cujo”

    ‘ Cujo is regularly hailed as one of the best cult horror movies of all time.  I never actually saw the 1983 flick until just prior to writing this post, but I came across some information about the main house – or, more accurately, houses – used in it while researching filming locations in Sonoma…
