Buckland Auction House from “Charmed”

Vivian’s Millennium Café
‘ I have to say that while I have always been a pretty big fan of Leah Remini (hello, Saved by the Bell! Who’s the Boss?! Living Dolls!), I don’t particularly love her reality show, Leah Remini: It’s All Relative. I was fascinated to learn through watching it, though, that Leah’s husband, mother, and stepfather…

I’ve Got the Hippy Hippy Shake!

Gray’s Papaya from “Sex and the City”
‘ You will never catch anyone calling me a “foodie.” My palate leans much more toward comfort than epicurean with meals of choice consisting of chicken strips and ranch dressing, turkey and mashed potatoes, and hot dogs. I am a hot dog fanatic. My favorite spot to grab a ‘furter is Gray’s Papaya in New…

Carondelet House from Maroon 5’s “Sugar” Music Video
‘ I am a sucker for any kind of choreographed dance, especially if a wedding is involved. So when my mom sent me a link to this video of an epic seven-minute wedding dance, in which all 250 guests were included in on the action, I was all over it! In one portion of the…

Krotona Apartments
‘ I have always maintained that I am an equal opportunity stalker. It is not just filming locations that enthrall me, but pop culture landmarks, historical sites, and architectural curiosities. In fact, the curiouser the better. So when I came across a grouping of grandiose Moorish-style structures dotted throughout a small section of the Hollywood…
