    The House Where Nick Adams Died

    ‘ As I have mentioned a few times over the past couple of months, fellow stalker E.J., from The Movieland Directory website, recently published an e-book about Old Hollywood titled Unscripted: Hollywood Back-Stories, Volume 1 (which you can purchase on Nook here and on Kindle here).  The book, which I devoured in less than a…

    Diane’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ Back in mid-November, a fellow stalker named Vinnie tweeted me to ask if I knew the location of the house belonging to Diane Lewis (whom I had no idea was played by Lucy Lawless, by the way!) – aka the spot where Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman) fixed a pothole – in the Season 5…

  • Michael J. Fox’s Childhood Home

    Michael J. Fox’s Childhood Home

    ‘ My good friend – and fellow stalker – Owen is an absolutely huge and longtime fan of actor Michael J. Fox.  In fact, I think it’s safe to say that MJF is Owen’s Jennifer Aniston.  So, when I found out that the Canadian-born actor grew up in Burnaby, British Columbia, the very same Vancouver…

  • Book Soup from “Bewitched”

    Book Soup from “Bewitched”

    ‘ I am a total bookstore junkie – as I’ve mentioned numerous times on this site.  The rest of the world seems to be leaning in the opposite direction, though.  Still I was shocked – and saddened – to learn of the recent shuttering of the Barnes & Noble on the Third Street Promenade in…

  • The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

    The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

    ‘ I stalk so many places, typically in quick succession, that oftentimes a few get lost in the shuffle.  Such was the case with The Blind Donkey, an Old Town Pasadena whiskey bar that I visited back in April, shortly before the Grim Cheaper and I headed off to New York, and then promptly forgot…

    The Tonga Room & Hurricane Bar from "The Bachelor"

    ‘ This season of The Bachelor has been one for the record books!  I don’t think there has ever been a prior season featuring so many crazy contestants – and for The Bachelor, that’s really saying something.  Sure there are a few sane women in the bunch (Whitney, Carly and Becca), but for the most…
