Hilton Checkers Hotel
‘ A few months ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, scored the two of us invites to a party and silent auction being held by the Location Managers Guild of America. We had a fab time at the party and got to meet many location scouts, none of whom had any idea that there were people like us out…

Kyoto Gardens from “Her”
‘ As a kid, I was pretty much never without a book in hand. (Truth be told, not much has changed since.) One of my favorite childhood tomes was Frances Hodgson Burnett’s 1911 masterpiece The Secret Garden. Reading it made me want nothing more than to unearth a lush hidden idyll of my own. That…

Dots Cupcakes!
‘ Last week, on a whim, I ventured into Dots Cupcakes in Pasadena to buy some Halloween cupcakes for my boyfriend. While waiting in line I noticed a framed InStyle Magazine article sitting on a shelf in the tiny shop. The article detailed the June 2007 wedding of Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’”‘”‘Connell, who rather…

The Fine Arts Building from “The Morning Show”
‘ Considering I’ve been at this crazy hobby of mine for twenty years now, you’d think I’d have stalked every square inch of Los Angeles. While watching the second episode of The Morning Show, though, I was reminded of a site I had yet to set foot in – downtown’s Fine Arts Building. I’d heard…

Bette Davis’ House from “Feud”
‘ My favorite Big Little Lies quote belongs to Madeline Martha Mackenzie (Reese Witherspoon), who, in response to Celeste Wright (Nicole Kidman) advising her to let something go, quips, “I love my grudges. I tend to them like little pets.” A woman after my own heart, I swear! Oh yes, I am a definite grudge-holder. …

Susina Bakery & Cafe from “90210”
‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for almost two years now is the café where Adrianna Tate-Duncan (aka Jessica Lowndes) ran into former boyfriend Navid Shirazi (aka Michael Steger) in the Season 1 Valentine’s Day-themed episode of 90210 titled “Of Heartbreaks and Hotels”. What can I say? Because I am…

Voletta Wallace’s House from “Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac & the Notorious B.I.G.”
‘ I have never been a fan of rap. My musical tastes tend to run far more tepid (read: Michael Bublé, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, and ‘80s pop). The Grim Cheaper likes to joke that my iPod song list hasn’t been updated since I first got the device back in 2001. Regardless, when I heard…

The “Three’s Company” Apartment Building
‘ This past Tuesday afternoon, while I was in the hospital awaiting my dad’s surgery, I received an email from fellow stalker Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, and I just about jumped out of my chair with excitement. The opening sentences of his email stated, “I’m actually trembling a bit as I…

Happy 2010!
‘ Just a quick note to wish all of my fellow stalkers a very Happy New Year’s 2010! I will be taking today off to celebrate with family and watch the Rose Parade, but I’ll be back on Monday with a whole new post. 🙂 Here’s wishing everyone a very safe and very happy New Year’s!…

The “Thriller” House
‘ Today, in honor of Halloween, I thought I’d blog about what is arguably the most famous haunted house of all time – the Victorian-style residence that was featured in the 1983 music video “Michael Jackson’s Thriller”. Even though I’ve actually already blogged about this location once before (way back in December of 2007 when…
