    Stalking the WB – For the Third Time!

    ‘ As I’ve mentioned a few times before, this past October, my good friends from Switzerland came to visit my family for a few weeks.  While they were here, I decided to take them on a Hollywood studio tour.  The only problem was I couldn’t decide exactly which Hollywood studio tour to take them on.  So,…

    18th Street Coffee House from “Modern Family”

    ‘ As I have said countless times before on this blog, there’s pretty much nothing I love more than a filming location that serves coffee.  So I thought stalking the 18th Street Coffee House in Santa Monica, which was featured in the Season 6 episode of Modern Family titled “Rash Decisions,” would be a pleasant…

    “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” Christmas House

    ‘ It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas – well, as much as it can in SoCal – which means it’s time to start posting holiday locales!  I’m kicking off the season with the pad that portrayed the Banks family residence in the Season 1 Yuletide-themed episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air titled…

    The Emser Tile Building from “Lethal Weapon”

    ‘ Located just up the street from the original Barney’s Beanery restaurant in West Hollywood, which I blogged about last Friday, is the Emser Tile Building which appeared in a very memorable scene in the first Lethal Weapon movie.  And even though I have never actually seen any of the four Lethal Weapon flicks (I…

  • The “Four Christmases” House

    The “Four Christmases” House

    ‘ Today’s location is a big one, my fellow stalkers!  Well, it is for me, at least, being that it took me years to find it, as I mentioned in last Friday’s post.  Yes, I am talking about the ultra-modern and gorgeous hilltop home where Brad (Vince Vaughn) and Kate (Reese Witherspoon) lived in the…

  • Burbank Town Center Mall from the Season 3 Finale of “The Mentalist”

    Burbank Town Center Mall from the Season 3 Finale of “The Mentalist”

    ‘ While watching the two-part Season 3 finale of fave show The Mentalist titled “Strawberries and Cream” a few weeks back, I just about died when I realized that the Burbank Town Center had stood in for the supposed Sacramento-area “Pinewood Shopping Mall” in the episode’s climatic final scene.  While Burbank Town Center is not…

  • "Welcome to Malibu, Bitch!"

    "Welcome to Malibu, Bitch!"

    ‘ Thanks to the ultimate OC stalking guide, I was able to stalk the ginormous mansion used as the home of Marissa Cooper on the second season of The O.C. In real life, the house is owned by NFL star Brian Bosworth and it isn’”‘”‘t located anywhere near the O.C. The mansion can actually be…

    Lindsay, The Celebrity Hunter

    ‘ Yesterday, our first full day in Kona, I did a little Dog, the Bounty Hunter stalking. My mom gets a bit obsessed with celebs, just like me – at least I know where I get it from 🙂 – and one of her biggest obsessions right now is Mr. Duane Chapman, aka Dog, the…

  • The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    ‘ Another Christmas-themed location that I stalked recently was the Brass Elephant bar – the Monrovia-area watering hole that stood in for the similarly-named “Brass Monkey” bar where Sue (aka Lauren Graham) worked in my least-favorite holiday movie of all time, 2003’s Bad Santa.  Fellow stalker Chas, from the It’sFilmedThere website, had tracked down the…
