    Arthur Abbott’s House from “The Holiday”

    ‘ Another location from the 2006 movie The Holiday that I set out to track down last week for my Christmas-themed stalking posts was the large Mediterranean-style abode where Arthur Abbott (aka The Misfits’ Eli Wallach) lived.  Thanks to the flick’s production notes, I knew that the property was located somewhere in Brentwood and that…

  • The Who’s the Boss House

    The Who’s the Boss House

    ‘ One location that I will, sadly, not be able to stalk during this year’s New York vacation for the simple fact that it is located too far from the island of Manhattan is the home belonging to the Bower Family in the 1984 television sitcom Who’s the Boss?  But thankfully, fellow stalker Owen visited…

    Rainbow Bar and Grill – the Site of Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe’s First Date

    ‘ One locale that I had long heard mentioned repeatedly in the various books and articles I had read about my girl Miss Marilyn Monroe over the years was the Sunset Strip’s Rainbow Bar and Grill – where Joe DiMaggio took the starlet for their very first date.  At the time, the establishment was known…

    The Grill on Main from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    ‘ Last month, while watching the Season 2 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills titled “Game Night Gone Wild”, I just about fell over when sisters Kim and Kyle Richards (neither of whom I can actually stand) walked into The Grill on Main – a La-Quinta-area eatery that I had been to just…

    The Chaplin Court Apartment Complex

    ‘ While doing research on the Sierra Bonita apartments from the 2001 thriller Mulholland Drive, which I blogged about back in October, I came across a mention of an absolutely adorable courtyard apartment complex in Hollywood about which legends abound. The complex is known by quite a few different monikers across the web, including Chaplin…

  • 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…

  • Eric Hamber Secondary School from “Juno”

    Eric Hamber Secondary School from “Juno”

    ‘ The third and final Juno filming location that I stalked while in Vancouver last month was the supposed Minneapolis-area Dancing Elk High School – the learning institution attended by Juno MacGuff (aka Ellen Page), her dorky baby-daddy Paulie Bleeker (aka Michael Cera), and her absolutely hilarious best friend, Leah (aka Olivia Thirlby).  In real…

    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…

  • The Bedtime Stories House

    The Bedtime Stories House

    ‘ Got a challenge last week from fellow stalker Owen who wanted me to find Courteney Cox‘”‘”‘s house from the 2008 movie Bedtime Stories.   And even though I had yet to see the movie, I was actually in luck with this challenge as one of my acting classmates had worked as a production assistant on the Adam Sandler flick.  …
