    How To Spot a Movie Star!

    ‘ Because so many of you have been asking lately, and in honor of the upcoming Oscar Weekend, I thought I’”‘”‘d do a post today on the best places to go in L.A. to see a star.   But first let me start by saying that if your sole purpose in visiting L.A. is to see celebs…

  • The Formosa Cafe

    The Formosa Cafe

    ‘ This past weekend I dragged my boyfriend out to West Hollywood to grab drinks at a Los Angeles staple that I had yet to stalk – the legendary Formosa Cafe. The small cafe, located on the corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and Formosa Avenue in West Hollywood, was opened up in 1925 by former…

    Hilton Sonoma Wine Country – Where the Cast of “Scream” Stayed During Filming

    ‘ I typically begin compiling notes on a location and roughly outlining a post weeks before I hit publish.  Today’s article, about the Hilton Sonoma Wine Country, where the cast and crew of Scream stayed during the 1996 film’s 55-day shoot, is no different.  Sadly though, devastation struck shortly after I penned that preliminary edit. …

    The Coffee Gallery from “The Office”

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, told me about a coffee house in Altadena named the Coffee Gallery which was featured in the Season 4 episode of The Office titled “Chair Model”.  He figured that because the place was both a coffee shop and a filming location that it would be right up…

    The Dutch Chocolate Shop from “Castle”

    Tom’s Bistro from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ A couple of months ago, I asked fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, to assist me in finding Tom’s Bistro from fave show Parks and Recreation.  It took him less than a minute to track the place down (thanks to this April 25th tweet).  As it turns out, a Hollywood…

    Bistro de la Gare from “Modern Family”

    ‘ This past Sunday morning, while grabbing some coffee with my parents and the Grim Cheaper at my new fave coffee house, Kaldi’s, my mom asked me if I happened to remember what day it was.  Looking at her with what I’m sure was a completely blank expression on my face, I told her that…

    ‘ I am taking today off for the Fourth of July , but wanted to wish all of my fellow stalkers a fabulous and safe holiday.  I will be back tomorrow with a whole new location. ‘

  • Leo’s Apartment Building from “Relativity”

    Leo’s Apartment Building from “Relativity”

    ‘ During my recent Relativity location-finding fest, I also managed to track down the apartment building where Leo Roth (David Conrad) lived with his quirky roommate, Doug (Adam Goldberg) – who was actually my favorite character – on the show.  I really could kick myself over this one, though, because I began searching for the…
