    Happy 2009!

    ‘ Last night, while watching the annual New Year’”‘”‘s Eve Ball Drop on television, my best friend mentioned that she wished she could see a photograph of a person standing next to the famous ball so that she could get an idea of how big it is in real life. Well, I just so happened…

    Simon Baker’s Former House

    ‘ While doing some cyberstalking on fave website Virtual Globetrotting a few weeks back, I came across this post listing the address of a Santa Monica home which formerly belonged to cutie Mentalist star – and my latest celebrity crush – Simon Baker and I just about keeled over from excitement.  So, when my dad…

  • The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    ‘ Another Christmas-themed location that I stalked recently was the Brass Elephant bar – the Monrovia-area watering hole that stood in for the similarly-named “Brass Monkey” bar where Sue (aka Lauren Graham) worked in my least-favorite holiday movie of all time, 2003’s Bad Santa.  Fellow stalker Chas, from the It’sFilmedThere website, had tracked down the…

    Leslie Knope’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ A few months ago, fellow stalker Brandon (the very same stalker who tracked down the Skyline Residence from Crazy, Stupid, Love., which I blogged about back in November) emailed me to ask for some help in locating the Craftsman-style abode where Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) lives on the television series Parks and Recreation.  And…

    Steve’s House from “Dead to Me”

    ‘ I have a major thing for modern houses.  So it’s no shock that my favorite locale from the new Netflix series Dead to Me is the uber-contemporary abode belonging to Judy Hale’s (Linda Cardellini) ex, Steve Wood (James Marsden).  Huge, avant-garde and decidedly unique, I fell in love with the place as soon as…

  • Olvera Street

    Olvera Street

    ‘ This weekend I dragged my boyfriend and my parents out to stalk a street that is known as the “birthplace of Los Angeles”.  The historic Olvera Street outdoor marketplace has long been a popular tourist attraction and filming location.  But its history began over 200 years ago when the area was built by early Spanish settlers.  At…

  • Larry Edmunds’ Former House

    Larry Edmunds’ Former House

    ‘ Just a few doors north of Peg Entwistle’s former residence (which I blogged about on Friday) is the guesthouse where iconic bookseller Larry Edmunds committed suicide in 1941.  I was absolutely shocked to come across the location in Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites, which was written by fellow stalker E.J. of The Movieland Directory,…

    The Mama’s Family House

    ‘ Last week I got a challenge to find the house used in the 1980′”‘”‘s television series Mama’”‘”‘s Family.  I had heard a while back that Mama’”‘”‘s house was in Pasadena, but had no idea of its exact location.   After doing a simple Google search, though, I quickly found the address.  Or so I thought.  🙂 …

    ‘ Don’t forget to check out my latest Los Angeles magazine post today – about the Walsh house from Beverly Hills, 90210, Jason Priestley’s new book and how I got started stalking – on LAMag.com.  (My columns typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours.) ‘

  • The Real Life “The Simpsons” House

    The Real Life “The Simpsons” House

    ‘ Did you know that there is a real The Simpsons house?  Neither did I.  For my birthday earlier this month, I told the Grim Cheaper that all I wanted to do was spend a couple of days at the Westin Lake Las Vegas Resort & Spa (which I blogged about here) in Henderson, Nevada. …
