  • Demitasse Café from “Bosch”

    Demitasse Café from “Bosch”

    ‘ I hope all of my fellow stalkers had a fun and safe Halloween.  For this year’s festivities, the Grim Cheaper and I headed over to our neighbor’s house for an amazing party (the decorations were like nothing I have ever seen!) and had an absolute blast.  Our 2018 costumes were, per usual, celebrity-inspired.  Unusual…

  • Rod Tidwell’s House from “Jerry Maguire”

    Rod Tidwell’s House from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ People often ask me about my most-wanted unfound locations.  Currently, the one that tops my list is the mansion where this Beverly Hills, 90210 publicity photo was taken.  But for several years, the locale that held that spot was the Mediterranean-style residence where Rod Tidwell (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and his wife, Marcee (Regina King),…

  • Spadra Cemetery

    Spadra Cemetery

    ‘ Finding the words “ghost town” used to describe a cemetery is likely to cause my head to start spinning.  Which is exactly what happened while I was doing some research on abandoned locales for an upcoming Discover Los Angeles post.  I happened to come across an article on the Avoiding Regret blog about a…

  • Anoakia Mansion from “Doppelganger”

    Anoakia Mansion from “Doppelganger”

    ‘ There’s no denying that Doppelganger is a pretty horrible movie.  But part of the fun of the Halloween season is watching ridiculously terrible horror flicks from years past – and stalking their locations, of course.  I had long been on the hunt for the psychiatric institution from the 1993 thriller and was given a…

  • Pershing Square Restaurant from “Friends with Benefits”

    Pershing Square Restaurant from “Friends with Benefits”

    ‘ Though most of my stalking adventures consist of copious amounts of time spent tracking down locations from movies and television shows and then heading out to see those sites in person, it does happen on occasion that a locale I have previously visited pops up unexpectedly in a production.  When this occurs, it thrills…

  • Izzy’s Deli from “Curb Your Enthusiasm”

    Izzy’s Deli from “Curb Your Enthusiasm”

    ‘ Because our flight home from Switzerland landed smack dab in the middle of rush hour on a Friday evening, the Grim Cheaper and I decided to book a hotel and spend the night near the airport rather than make what probably would have been a four-plus hour drive to Palm Springs. It turned out…

  • Sherman Oaks, 90210

    Sherman Oaks, 90210

    ‘ My buddy Mike over at MovieShotsLA just told me the address of Kelly Taylor’”‘”‘s house from my fave show of all time Beverly Hills, 90210, so today (my first day off since quitting my job) I ran right out to stalk it! I was absolutely floored to see Kelly’”‘”‘s house in person, as I…

  • “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    ‘ One location that fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for what seems like years now is the parking lot where Robbie (aka Adam Sandler) and Julia (aka Drew Barrymore) tested Sammy’s (aka Allen Covert’s) limo driving skills in fave movie The Wedding Singer.  And I think I can safely say that…

  • The Bulge from “Parks and Recreation”

    The Bulge from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ Another day, another location from fave show Parks and Recreation!  Seriously, I hope you guys aren’t getting sick of P&R locales yet.  Anyway, a couple of weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I hit up the Oxford Inn in Van Nuys, aka the bar that stands in for the Bulge – Pawnee, Indiana’s local…

  • An Evening with “The Closer” at The Paley Center for Media

    An Evening with “The Closer” at The Paley Center for Media

    ‘ While perusing my Picasa photo account yesterday, I realized that I have been seriously lagging on my Celebrity Sightings posts, as there are numerous events that I have yet to blog about, most notably one that I attended well over a month ago – The Paley Center for Media’s An Evening with The Closer…
