    My Favorite Entertainment Finds of 2018

    ‘ I watch a lot of television and movies throughout the year – as both part of my job and for entertainment.  I am also a voracious reader and listen to a copious amount of podcasts.  2018 brought a slew of new finds.  Some started out as promising, but completely missed the mark [I’m looking…

  • “The Goldbergs” House

    “The Goldbergs” House

    ‘ A couple of years ago, my good friend Lavonna got obsessed with the ABC series The Goldbergs and asked me to do some research on its locales.  She was most interested in learning the location of the Goldberg family’s Anywhere, U.S.A.-style home and I found the address – 3071 Earlmar Drive in Cheviot Hills…

  • Orcutt Ranch Horticultural Center & Community Garden from “La La Land”

    Orcutt Ranch Horticultural Center & Community Garden from “La La Land”

    ‘ On paper, La La Land looked like my perfect movie.  I love Ryan Gosling.  I love Emma Stone.  I love musicals.  And I LOVE L.A.  The film just didn’t work for me, though.  I realize mine is a vastly unpopular opinion, but I found La La Land to be too long, too slow, and…

  • Tom’s Bistro from “Parks and Recreation”

    Tom’s Bistro from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ A couple of months ago, I asked fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, to assist me in finding Tom’s Bistro from fave show Parks and Recreation.  It took him less than a minute to track the place down (thanks to this April 25th tweet).  As it turns out, a Hollywood…

    Rosie’s Pink House from The Wedding Singer

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, fellow stalker Owen contacted me to see if Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I could help him track down Rosie, aka  the rappin’”‘”‘ granny’”‘”‘s,  pink house from the 1998 movie The Wedding Singer.  Owen had been trying for quite a while to locate the home, but just couldn’”‘”‘t make out the…

    Kristin Cavallari’s Beach House from “The Hills”

    ‘ Just down the street from Jennifer Aniston’s former beach house, which I blogged about on Friday, is the residence that Kristin Cavallari called home during this past season of fave reality show The Hills.  So, since we were already in the area a couple of weeks ago, I just had to drag fellow stalker…

  • Happy Labor Day!

    Happy Labor Day!

    ‘ I will be taking today off to celebrate Labor Day with my family.  And because I spent this past weekend helping my parents move, I most likely won’t have a new post to publish for tomorrow either.  🙁  But I promise to be back on Wednesday with a whole new blog, so stay tuned! …

  • The Site of the “A Few Good Men” Crab Restaurant

    The Site of the “A Few Good Men” Crab Restaurant

    ‘ To paraphrase Dorothy (Judy Garland) in The Wizard of Oz, our heart’s desires can often be found right in our own backyard.  Even though I’ve seen the 1939 film about a gazillion times, I failed to heed Dorothy’s advice while searching for the crab restaurant Lt. Cdr. JoAnne Galloway (Demi Moore) took Lt. Daniel…

  • The “A Few Good Men” Softball Field

    The “A Few Good Men” Softball Field

    ‘ I don’t know – or care – much about sports.  I do love me some Tom Cruise, though.  So when my friend/fellow stalker Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, sent me his list of Washington, D.C./Philadelphia-area locales prior to my trip back east last September, I was thrilled to see the softball…

  • Loretta Young’s Former West Hollywood House

    Loretta Young’s Former West Hollywood House

    ‘ Once I discovered that Loretta Young’s Palm Springs house (which I blogged about on Tuesday) was not, in fact, the place where Judy Lewis (the legendary actress’ secret love child with Clark Gable) learned the truth about her birth, I set out to track down the location where the encounter actually did take place. …
