    The Coffee Pot from “90210”

    ‘ As I mentioned back in March in my post about Bar Keeper in Silver Lake, the whimsical little barware store that stood in for Upon Galley in the 2005 movie A Lot Like Love, one locale that I had been absolutely itching to stalk in recent weeks was the Coffee Pot, an Echo Park-area…

  • Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”

    Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”

    ‘ My recent trip to Las Vegas with the Grim Cheaper was magical, due in large part to the fact that we stayed at Caesars Palace.  Neither the GC nor I had ever stayed there before and, while planning our trip, I decided to see what the rates were.  I happened to find a remarkably…

  • The “Yes, Dear” House

    The “Yes, Dear” House

    ‘ One show that I never really understood the appeal of is Yes, Dear.  My dad loved the sitcom, which ran from 2000 to 2006, and watched it regularly, but I always found the characters slightly unlikable and the storylines a bit ridiculous.  Nevertheless, when I received an email from a fellow stalker named Jeremy…

  • The Ohara House – aka Miles’ House from “The Holiday”

    The Ohara House – aka Miles’ House from “The Holiday”

    ‘ One location that my good friend/fellow stalker Lavonna suggested that I blog about during my Christmas-themed stalking week was the modernist abode where Miles (aka Jack Black) lived in the 2006 Nancy-Meyers-directed flick The Holiday.  Ironically enough, just a few days after my conversation with Lavonna, my mom and I happened to catch The…

  • The CalEdison from “The Morning Show”

    The CalEdison from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ L.A. never ceases to amaze!  Case in point – the CalEdison.  Built in 1931, the Art Deco masterpiece is not only a sight to behold, but its grand lobby is open to the public!  Somehow though, I never knew about the place until last week when I was researching locations from The Morning Show.…

  • The 19th Annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibition at FIDM

    The 19th Annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibition at FIDM

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’s post about the Buckland Auction House from Charmed, this past weekend I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk the 19th Annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibition which is currently on display at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising Museum & Galleries in Downtown Los Angeles…

  • Halloween 2015

    Halloween 2015

    ‘ I know I say it every year, but this Halloween truly was the Best. Halloween. Ever.  As I mentioned on Monday, my best friend, Robin, and his girlfriend, Steffi, flew in from Switzerland to spend the week with us.  Halloween is not celebrated in Switzerland, so I was beyond excited to share my favorite…

  • The Phillips Mansion

    The Phillips Mansion

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper always tells me that it is not about the destination, but the journey.  He’s right.  Getting lost can have its perks.  While driving around looking for Spadra Cemetery (which I blogged about on Friday) a couple of weeks ago, we happened upon a seemingly abandoned mansion set back from the road…

  • The Pioneer Saloon

    The Pioneer Saloon

    ‘ There’s only one thing I love more than stalking film locations and that’s stalking film locations that have a history.  On our way out of Las Vegas last week, the Grim Cheaper and I visited a watering hole that has quite a storied one.  The Pioneer Saloon in Goodsprings, which has been deemed Southern…

  • Barone’s Famous Italian Restaurant from “The Office”

    Barone’s Famous Italian Restaurant from “The Office”

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for quite a few weeks now is the Italian restaurant where the Dunder Mifflin gang hosted the annual Dundies Awards ceremony in the Season 7 episode of fave show The Office titled “Michael’s Last Dundies”.  I had an inkling that the eatery was most…
