Idle Time Books from “A Few Good Men”
‘ There’s pretty much nothing I love more than bookstores. They run second only to Starbucks and film locations in my book (pun intended). If I come across a good one, I can get lost amongst the stacks for hours. So there was no way I was leaving Washington D.C. without checking out Idle Time…

The 101 Coffee Shop from “Swingers”
‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since moving to Los Angeles over a decade ago, but didn’t because there were numerous erroneous reports floating around online which stated that the place had since closed down, was the 101 Coffee Shop which appeared in the 1996 movie Swingers. It wasn’t until Mike, from…

Lauren Conrad’s Park La Brea Apartment
‘ Since LC will soon be moving on up, I thought I’”‘”‘d put up her old address for people to stalk while they still have the chance. On , Lauren’”‘”‘s apartment was always referred to as “The Hillside Villas in West Hollywood”, but LC’”‘”‘s apartment was actually located in Los Angeles in a complex called…

Oliver’s Palm Springs House from “The O.C.”
‘ As I mentioned a few weeks ago, the Grim Cheaper and I have just recently started watching fave series The O.C. over again from the beginning and one location that popped up during the first season that I have been absolutely dying to find and stalk was the supposed-Palm-Springs-area house that belonged to troublemaker…

Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”
‘ Today’s locale is another one of those facepalm spots. For ages, I had been trying to track down the interior of the diner where Mitch (Owen Wilson) and the boys discussed saving their fraternity in the 2003 comedy Old School. While I had long known that Montrose Bakery & Café (which, sadly, Yelp is…

Poolside Getaway
‘ My parents surprised us by booking a little poolside family getaway for the week, so I will not have any new posts this week aside from my usual Los Angeles magazine column on Thursday (it’”‘”‘s a really exciting one – I’”‘”‘m telling the story of my favorite only-in-L.A. moment!). I will be laptoping it…

My Latest L.A. Mag Post – About Casa Walsh and Jason Priestley’s New Book
‘ Don’t forget to check out my latest Los Angeles magazine post today – about the Walsh house from Beverly Hills, 90210, Jason Priestley’s new book and how I got started stalking – on LAMag.com. (My columns typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours.) ‘

The Bel Age Hotel from “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ Ah, change. It’s one of my least favorite things, especially when it comes to filming locations. So I was devastated when the Wyndham Bel Age Hotel, one of the most prominent locations from Beverly Hills, 90210, closed in 2007 to undergo a huge renovation and was renamed The London West Hollywood. I had been…

The Standard Hotel Rooftop Bar in Downtown Los Angeles
‘ Another Fracture filming location that I recently stalked – without actually realizing it – was the Standard Hotel’s Rooftop Bar in Downtown L.A. I say “without actually realizing it” because at the time I stalked the place I had no idea it was a filming location. I ended up there while on the way…
