    Virginia O’Hanlon’s Former House

    ‘ I still believe in Santa Claus.  Yes, you read that right.  Though I am fast approaching 40, the magic and wonderment of the Christmas season remain very real to me.  My feelings on the subject can best be summed up by Francis Pharcellus Church’s famed 1897 The New York Sun editorial penned in response…

  • Mickey’s Diner from “The Mighty Ducks”

    Mickey’s Diner from “The Mighty Ducks”

    ‘ I thought I’d give y’all a break from the myriad of Beautiful Girls locations that I’ve been blogging about as of late by dedicating today’s post to a very famous and historic St. Paul restaurant named Mickey’s Diner.  The diner is something of a Twin Cities landmark and pretty much every Native Minnesotan that…

  • The “Spanglish” House

    The “Spanglish” House

    ‘ The Michael J. Fox Theatre in Burnaby, British Columbia, which I blogged about yesterday, was actually the very last Vancouver locale that I had logged away in my location library and, while I have a slew of Seattle area spots that I have yet to write about, I thought that for today I’d mix…

  • Jefferson Market Garden

    Jefferson Market Garden

    ‘ Another Sex and the City  location that I re-stalked while in New York last month was Jefferson Market Garden, the spot where the series’ ever-present cynic Miranda Hobbs finally married long-time boyfriend Steve Brady in the Season 6 episode entitled “The Ick Factor”.  I first stalked this location back in December of 2006, but…

  • Seattle’s Fairmont Olympic Hotel

    Seattle’s Fairmont Olympic Hotel

    ‘ Another location that I stalked back in May while visiting the Pacific Northwest was the famous Fairmont Olympic Hotel located in Downtown Seattle.  The Olympic is a landmark Seattle building that has appeared in countless productions over the years and has played host to dozens of celebrities in its almost ninety-year history, so there…

  • Charlie’s Apartment Building from “Monster-in-Law”

    Charlie’s Apartment Building from “Monster-in-Law”

    ‘ The third and final Monster-in-Law locale that I set out to find this past weekend was the supposed Venice Beach area apartment building where Charlie Cantilini (aka Jennifer Lopez) lived in the flick.  Fellow stalker Nick had already determined that the Spanish-style building was located somewhere in Hollywood, so from there I set out…

  • Seaside Coffee Shop from “Big Little Lies”

    Seaside Coffee Shop from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ My favorite filming location find from this season of Big Little Lies isn’t actually a filming location at all!  Back on March 19th, 2018, shortly after shooting of S2 commenced, Reese Witherspoon posted an Instagram photo of herself sitting in front of the supposed Central Coast-area Seaside Coffee Shop with costar Laura Dern, captioning,…

  • Yamashiro Restaurant

    Yamashiro Restaurant

    ‘ Last Monday night, the Grim Cheaper and I headed out to fave restaurant Yamashiro in Hollywood to grab some drinks to celebrate the six month anniversary of our wedding.  I can hardly believe that it has already been six months, by the way.  While in some ways it feels as if my wedding took…

  • Palindrome Healing Center from “Flaked”

    Palindrome Healing Center from “Flaked”

    ‘ Some images just stay with you.  When I came across these MLS photos of a Venice Beach home on Curbed Los Angeles back in 2008, I practically started drooling and the words “real estate porn” immediately came to mind.  The pictures of the dramatically unique Moroccan-inspired dwelling, especially the ones of the meandering pool,…

  • The “Georgia Rule” House

    The “Georgia Rule” House

    ‘ One location that I have been absolutely DYING to stalk for what seems like AGES now is the supposed Hull, Idaho-area home belonging to Georgia Randall (aka Jane Fonda) in the 2005 dramedy Georgia Rule.  And I have to say here that despite being largely panned by the critics (Moviefone even rated it the…
