‘ I will be taking the next couple of days off from blogging in order to celebrate the Fourth of July weekend with the Grim Cheaper and Mike, from MovieShotsLA, who is in town for a visit. (Yay!) I know, I know – I just got back from a two-week vacation! But such is life.…

The "Punky Brewster" Opening Credits Locations
‘ After tracking down the apartment building where Punky Brewster (Soleil Moon Frye) and her adoptive father, Henry Warnimont (George Gaynes), lived in the 1984 television series Punky Brewster (which I blogged about here), I became completely obsessed with finding the locations that appeared in the opening credits of the show’s pilot episode, which was…

The World’s Most Haunted House
‘ I’ve mentioned before that my good friend Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, and I have an almost eerie synchronicity. So what happened this past Monday shouldn’t have surprised me. Last October, he informed me that there is a pad that has been dubbed “the world’s most haunted house” located in the…

The Second Peach Pit
‘ Two weekends ago, thanks to Mike from MovieShotsLA, I was able to stalk a location that I have long been on the lookout for – the storefront that was used as the second Peach Pit on the original Beverly Hills, 90210 series. Yes, I did say the “second” Peach Pit. As most fans of the series…

Michael Jackson’s Childhood Home in Gary, Indiana
‘ Today’s blog is a major, major fail on my part as I had originally intended to write about this location on Monday, August 29th – the day that would have been legendary singer Michael Jackson’s 53rd birthday. The suggestion to write about the King of Pop’s childhood home on the anniversary of his birth…

Pickwick’s Pub from “The Office”
‘ This past weekend, I dragged my husband (that is SO weird to say!) out to stalk Pickwick’s Pub – the Woodland Hills watering hole that stands in for the Dunder Mifflin gang’s favorite local hangout, Poor Richard’s Pub, on fave show The Office. And while there is actually a real life Poor Richard’s Pub…

Franklin Library from “Beautiful Girls”
‘ The final Beautiful Girls filming location that I stalked while visiting Minnesota this past May was the library where Tommy “Birdman” Rowland (aka Matt Dillon) met up with his married girlfriend Darian Smalls (aka Lauren Holly) and her daughter, Kristen (aka Sarah Katz), towards the end of the flick. I found this location, once…

The Win A Date With Tad Hamilton Motel
‘ I’”‘”‘ve said it before and I’”‘”‘ll say it again – I heart Josh Duhamel! Sigh! So, last week, on a whim, I decided to do some stalking of fave movie Win A Date With Tad Hamilton. A few years back I had read on IMDB that Win A Date was shot almost entirely on location in a…
