  • The Filming Locations of “Breaking Bad”

    The Filming Locations of “Breaking Bad”

    ‘ I am not a Breaking Bad fan.  I know, I know – I am in the minority on this one.  The Grim Cheaper and I started to watch the series, which ran on AMC from 2008 through 2013, and absolutely LOVED the first two episodes.  They were hilarious.  Then the show seemed to take…

  • Paul Rudd’s Parents’ House from “I Love You, Man”

    Paul Rudd’s Parents’ House from “I Love You, Man”

    ‘ A few weeks ago while doing some stalking in the Valley, I dragged my fiancé out to visit the house where Peter Klaven’s (aka Paul Rudd’s) parents, Oswald and Joyce Klaven, who were played by J.K. Simmons and Jane Curtin respectively, and his brother Robbie (aka Andy Samberg) lived in fave movie I Love…

  • Thornton Gardens from “Funny Girl”

    Thornton Gardens from “Funny Girl”

    ‘ I have never been a big Barbra Streisand fan.  Sure, she’s an undeniably talented singer – and actress and director, for that matter – but I’m just not that into music.  And that whole Rosie-O’Donnell-having-to-rearrange-her-stage-to-showcase-Barbra’s-better-side thing really turned me off.  I won’t even get in to her absolutely cringe-worthy Inside the Actors Studio interview. …

  • Pinches Tacos from “The Hills”

    Pinches Tacos from “The Hills”

    ‘ As always seems to happen when Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I get together, while out doing some stalking in West Hollywood this past Thursday afternoon, the two of us stumbled upon a filming location without even meaning to do so.  After stopping by the Sunset Strip’s new Pink Taco to grab some lunch and…

  • The Barthman Sidewalk Clock

    The Barthman Sidewalk Clock

    ‘ It has been said that you shouldn’t look down when you walk.  There are two places in Manhattan where you ought to keep your eyes on the pavement, though.  I blogged about one, Hess Triangle in front of Village Cigars, on Wednesday.  The other, a clock imbedded in concrete outside of what was once…

  • Sorry To Do This Again . . .

    Sorry To Do This Again . . .

    ‘ Sorry to do this again, but I have to take another day off.  I have been burning the candle at both ends this week and, unfortunately, have not had much time for blogging.  I do promise to be back tomorrow, though (and this time I really mean it! ) with a whole new location!…

  • Lindsay, The Celebrity Hunter

    Lindsay, The Celebrity Hunter

    ‘ Yesterday, our first full day in Kona, I did a little Dog, the Bounty Hunter stalking. My mom gets a bit obsessed with celebs, just like me – at least I know where I get it from 🙂 – and one of her biggest obsessions right now is Mr. Duane Chapman, aka Dog, the…

  • Art’s Delicatessen & Restaurant from “Beverly Hills, 90210: Exposed!”

    Art’s Delicatessen & Restaurant from “Beverly Hills, 90210: Exposed!”

    ‘ They say you should always listen to your mother.  It’s good advice.  Case in point – about a decade ago, while stalking in Studio City, my mom, my dad, the Grim Cheaper and I passed by Art’s Delicatessen & Restaurant on Ventura Boulevard and decided to pop in for a bite.  During our meal,…

  • Abbot’s Habit from “The Truth About Cats & Dog”

    Abbot’s Habit from “The Truth About Cats & Dog”

    ‘ Last Saturday, after stalking the Venice exterior of O’Hara’s Pub from Bad Santa (which I blogged about here), the Grim Cheaper and I decided to walk around Abbot Kinney Boulevard for a bit.  At one point during our stroll, we passed by a corner coffee shop named Abbot’s Habit and I recognized it immediately…

  • The Waterfront Beach Resort from “Rosewood”

    The Waterfront Beach Resort from “Rosewood”

    ‘ It is such a shame when a favorite show jumps the shark.  If its latest episode, titled “Amparo & the American Dream,” is any indication, that fate seems to have befallen Rosewood, the FOX procedural currently in its second season.  While I was all in with the recent storyline centering around Captain Ryan Slade…
