Louis B. Mayer’s Former House – The Birthplace of the Academy Awards
‘ Last week, the Grim Cheaper emailed me a fabulous Vanity Fair article about the genesis of the most iconic night in Hollywood – the Academy Awards.

Clark Magnet High School from “Our House”
‘ Back in March, a fellow stalker named Bill contacted me to ask for some help in tracking down the high school that Kris Witherspoon (my girl Shannen Doherty) attended in the 1986 television series Our House.

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…

While the Morningside Heights eatery had been on my To-Stalk List ever since my first visit to Manhattan back in 2005, due to…

The Adamson House from “You”
‘ The second season of You had me feeling like an inadequate Angelino! (Yes, even though I now live in Palm Springs, I still consider myself an L.A. denizen.) In episode 6, “Farewell, My Bunny,” Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti) and her friends teach Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) about Los Angeles’ “seven totems,” which, once seen,…
