  • Without A Trace Update

    ‘ Just a quick update that the Without a Trace episode that was filmed at La Salle High School in Pasadena back on March 21st will be airing tonight on CBS at 10pm. You can read the full Without a Trace post about the filming at La Salle here. Happy Stalking! 🙂 ‘

  • Tom Neal’s Former House

    Tom Neal’s Former House

    ‘ Upon first moving to the Desert in January, I started seriously perusing the book Palm Springs Confidential, which the Grim Cheaper’s boss had purchased for me several years prior.  One locale mentioned in the tome that immediately piqued my interest was the former Little Tuscany Estates residence of Tom Neal, where, on April 1st,…

  • The Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel from “The Office”

    The Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport Hotel from “The Office”

    ‘ I typically have the memory of an elephant, but up until the Grim Cheaper and I recently started re-watching The Office over again from the beginning, I had honestly forgotten what a great show it is.  I had also forgotten that several locations from it remain unknown and/or undocumented.  One that I recognized immediately…

  • Espresso Profeta from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    Espresso Profeta from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    ‘ A couple of years ago, the Grim Cheaper and my cable service stopped providing Bravo TV (and E!) as a part of their basic subscription, which absolutely crushed me being that I was no longer able to watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, one of my very favorite shows.  (Don’t even get me…

  • McSorley’s Old Ale House from “Rounders”

    McSorley’s Old Ale House from “Rounders”

    ‘ It has been said that 60% of restaurants close within a year of opening and that 80% don’t make it past year five.  Many in New York, though, have real staying power.  Take McSorley’s Old Ale House, for example.  The East Village watering hole/eatery has been around for more than 16 decades!  Yep, 16…

  • John Adams Middle School from “Heathers”

    John Adams Middle School from “Heathers”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper is a celebrity magnet.  Literally everywhere he goes, he runs into someone famous.  It’s maddening because 90% of these encounters occur when I am not with him.  Like the time he stopped by a Starbucks while on his way to a business meeting and saw Keanu Reeves sitting outside.  Or the…

  • The “Little Miss Sunshine” Restaurant

    The “Little Miss Sunshine” Restaurant

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, while doing research on the former Abiquiu eatery (now Wokcano) from Get Shorty (which I blogged about here), I came across a Chowhound message board on which a commenter named Kevin stated that Pann’s restaurant in Ladera Heights was the spot where the Hoover clan –  Olive (Abigail…

  • The “Mask” House

    The “Mask” House

    ‘ While I realize that I still have quite a few posts to publish from my recent stalking trip to the Palmdale/Lancaster area (including the Four Aces and Club Ed movie sets), as well as a few filming-related posts to write from my nuptials last August (most notably the venue), I decided to dedicate today’s…

  • Melrose Avenue from “L.A. Story”

    Melrose Avenue from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ Another L.A. Story location that has been waiting patiently in my stalking backlog is the block of Melrose Avenue where Harris K. Telemacher (Steve Martin) and Sara McDowel (Victoria Tennant) walked and talked after attending a fundraiser for a private art museum in the 1991 flick.  Unfortunately though, because the movie was lensed over…

  • The Virgil from “A Star Is Born”

    The Virgil from “A Star Is Born”

    ‘ I got a text from my friend Liz the other day saying, “Don’t see A Star Is Born . . . OMG!” followed by a bunch of crying face emojis.  As Liz and most of my fellow stalkers are well aware, I do not like sad or depressing movies – at all.  Liz needn’t…
