  • Café Descanso from “Big Little Lies”

    Café Descanso from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ My mom recently commented to me that the latest season of Big Little Lies is shot very tightly, which she finds surprising being that director Andrea Arnold sought to feature more of the great outdoors this time around.  Even Blissful Drip Café, the prop coffee shop built specifically for the series on a bluff…

  • Another Day Off!

    Another Day Off!

    ‘ Yes, I am taking yet another day off!  But I have a good excuse – a fellow stalker named Sara was in town visiting from Switzerland and I spent all day yesterday stalking with her.  And then last night Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, and I attended a screening of The…

  • Joe and Love’s New House from “You”

    Joe and Love’s New House from “You”

    ‘ I apologize to those who don’t follow me on Instagram or Facebook for not posting updates about my dad here.  He was finally moved out of the ICU a couple of days ago, thank God, and is currently progressing in the right direction.  Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi and cell signal in the ICU were nil,…

  • The “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” Apartment Building

    The “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” Apartment Building

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, fellow stalker Owen set out upon a mission to try to track down the Spanish-style apartment building where Peter Bretter (aka Jason Segal) lived in the 2008 romantic comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall.  He emailed a few screen captures of the building to me and to the rest of “the…

  • The Griffith Park Merry Go Round from “The Mentalist”

    The Griffith Park Merry Go Round from “The Mentalist”

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for almost two years now, ever since November of 2008 when it appeared in the Season One episode of The Mentalist titled “Seeing Red”, was the merry go round where Patrick Jane (aka Simon Baker) lured murder suspect Travis Tennant (aka Noel Fisher).  The only problem…

  • Carrera Café – Where Your Favorite Celebrity Can Be Turned into Latte Art

    Carrera Café – Where Your Favorite Celebrity Can Be Turned into Latte Art

    ‘ When not stalking or shopping, you can typically find me perusing fashion and beauty blogs.  There are several I frequent daily including Gal Meets Glam, Atlantic-Pacific, Merrick’s Art, Cupcakes and Cashmere, and Hello Gorgeous.  The latter was founded by Angela Lanter, wife of fave actor Matt Lanter.  I started reading her site because of…

  • Lester Siegel’s House from “Argo”

    Lester Siegel’s House from “Argo”

    ‘ Today’s post is the very first blog written from my new home in the desert. The Grim Cheaper and I moved last Wednesday (it took over 15 hours!) and are finally getting settled in to our Palm Springs pad. There is still quite a bit left to complete, though, and, while the hyper-organized/anal/OCD-side of…

  • “The Unicorn” House

    “The Unicorn” House

    ‘ The Fall 2019 television season is chock full of fabulous new series!  The Grim Cheaper says the deluge brings him right back to the Must-See TV days of the ‘90s.  A few of our favorites include The Morning Show (as mentioned here), All Rise, Bluff City Law, Prodigal Son, and The Unicorn.  The latter, based…

  • The “Ghost Dad” House

    The “Ghost Dad” House

    ‘ Long before I ever moved to Southern California, I purchased the Ultimate Hollywood Tour Book and was absolutely mesmerized by what I found inside.  One whole chapter of the tome is dedicated to filming locations in Pasadena and its environs and when my family and I did relocate to the Crown City in 2000,…

  • The Waterfront Beach Resort from “Rosewood”

    The Waterfront Beach Resort from “Rosewood”

    ‘ It is such a shame when a favorite show jumps the shark.  If its latest episode, titled “Amparo & the American Dream,” is any indication, that fate seems to have befallen Rosewood, the FOX procedural currently in its second season.  While I was all in with the recent storyline centering around Captain Ryan Slade…
