    Hollywood Center Motel

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up to ask me if I knew that my latest Hollywood crush, Simon Baker, had one of his earliest acting roles in the 1997 movie  L.A. Confidential.  And I almost fell out of my chair!  Even though I’”‘”‘ve seen that movie about a hundred times, I never realized…

    Taking Today and Tomorrow Off

    ‘ My dad had surgery yesterday (fingers crossed that this one will be successful!) and, because I am spending the next few days in the desert with him, I will not have any new blogs to post today or Thursday and, possibly, Friday. I do have a funny stalking anecdote to share, though – one…

    The Huxtable’s House

    ‘ I must be in a New York state of mind this week, because here I am yet again with another NYC filming location.  🙂  One of my very favorite blocks in all of Manhattan is called Saint Luke’”‘”‘s Place and it just happens to be the location of a famous brownstone from TV – the Huxtable Family’”‘”‘s house from .  St. Luke’”‘”‘s Place…

    Hanging out at Vincent Chase’s!

    ‘ This weekend, while doing some cyber-stalking, I found the address of Vincent Chase’”‘”‘s house from the HBO show Entourage, which is quickly turning into me and my boyfriend’”‘”‘s new fave show. So, on Saturday, I dragged my boyfriend to Beverly Hills to stalk the house that was used in the first two seasons of…

  • George’s Side Kicks Shoe Factory from “Father of the Bride”

    George’s Side Kicks Shoe Factory from “Father of the Bride”

    ‘ Another Father of the Bride location that fellow stalker Chas, from the ItsFilmedThere website, tracked down recently was the Side Kicks shoe factory owned by George Banks (aka Steve Martin) in the flick.  And while I had been absolutely dying to stalk the place for what seemed like ages, I just could not seem to figure out where…

  • Stumbling Upon Sarah Silverman

    Stumbling Upon Sarah Silverman

    ‘ Yesterday, I happened to stop into my favorite bookstore on the planet – Vroman’”‘”‘s Bookstore in Pasadena – and was floored to see a sign on the door saying “Filming in Progress”. I couldn’”‘”‘t believe my luck and I rushed inside to find out what was being filmed. Turns out it was The Sarah…

  • The Former Site of the “Eight Is Enough” House

    The Former Site of the “Eight Is Enough” House

    ‘ One of my biggest filming location pet peeves is when an unfound spot from an old movie or television show is explained away as having been demolished without any evidence to support that allegation.  Like Whitney Houston, I wanna see the receipts!  So when I recently came across an Eight Is Enough message board…

  • The Sierra Bonita Apartments from “Mulholland Dr.”

    The Sierra Bonita Apartments from “Mulholland Dr.”

    ‘ Another Haunted-Hollywood-type location that I found thanks to fellow stalker/David Lynch aficionado Brad, from the Brad D Studios website, was the fictionally-named “Sierra Bonita” apartment complex –  the fairy-tale-style property that was featured in one of the more intense and terrifying scenes from the surrealist director’s incredibly odd 2001 thriller Mulholland Dr. Brad had…

  • Drago Ristorante from “Entourage”

    Drago Ristorante from “Entourage”

    ‘ Last Monday afternoon, I found myself having to kill a few hours of time while my car was being repaired at a mechanic’s shop on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, so I headed across the street to grab a latte and some lunch at a restaurant named Aroma Bakery & Café.  I had never before…
