  • The Canfield-Moreno Estate from “Scream 3”

    The Canfield-Moreno Estate from “Scream 3”

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for what seems like ages now is the Canfield-Moreno Estate – an absolutely humongous Italianate-style villa that was featured extensively in the 2000 thriller Scream 3.  I first found out about the locale thanks to Mike, from MovieShotsLA, who had stalked it a few years back…

  • Martin Luther King Day!

    Martin Luther King Day!

    ‘ I will be taking a respite from blogging today in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. I will actually be spending the entire day with Mike, from MovieShotsLA – one last stalking hurrah before my move to the Desert on Wednesday. I do promise to be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new…

  • Wayne Manor From the “Batman” Television Series

    Wayne Manor From the “Batman” Television Series

    ‘ Just up the street from the Just Married mansion which I blogged about yesterday is the residence which stood in for Wayne Manor, aka Batman’s abode, in the 1966 television series and movie of the same name.  As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, the Batman mansion and the Just Married mansion are quite often…

  • The Milbank Mansion – aka Chapman Academy Preschool from “Daddy Day Care”

    The Milbank Mansion – aka Chapman Academy Preschool from “Daddy Day Care”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, Tony, my friend and fellow stalker who has the fabulous On Location in Los Angeles Flickr photostream (seriously, it’s amazing – go check it out!), asked me for some help in tracking down the ginormous Mediterranean mansion that stood in for the prestigious Chapman Academy Preschool in the 2003…

  • 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…

  • A Visit with Our Best Friends

    A Visit with Our Best Friends

    ‘ My best friend, Robin, and his family are currently in town visiting from Switzerland for the week and I could NOT be more excited.  We have rented an uh-ma-zing house in Hollywood for their stay and are all looking forward to countless adventures together over the next seven days.  Although Robin and I see…

  • Sara’s House from “Grandfathered”

    Sara’s House from “Grandfathered”

    ‘ I always find it amusing when the exterior of a home is changed between a television show’s pilot and its subsequent episodes (which happens often, as I have mentioned numerous times on this site), but the interior is kept the same.  Such was the case with the ranch-style residence where Sara (Paget Brewster, who…

  • Healdsburg Town Plaza from “Scream”

    Healdsburg Town Plaza from “Scream”

    ‘ I was saddened to wake up to the news of yet another fire tearing through Sonoma County last Thursday morning, this one threatening Healdsburg, one of my favorite places in the entire world.  Not only is the city idyllic, pastoral and ridiculously charming, but it is a filming location to boot, the main square…

  • San Francisco City Hall

    San Francisco City Hall

    ‘ I think it’”‘”‘s pretty safe to say that I’”‘”‘ve read just about every biography on my girl Marilyn Monroe that’”‘”‘s ever been published.   So, imagine my surprise when I came across an article the other day which stated that the starlet married her second husband, baseball legend Joe DiMaggio, at San Francisco City Hall.  How in the…

  • Jen’s House from “Dead to Me”

    Jen’s House from “Dead to Me”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I admittedly become obsessed with a lot of shows.  But it is a rare occasion (at least as of late) to find ourselves consumed by a series filmed entirely in L.A. (Bosch and Brooklyn Nine-Nine notwithstanding).  Darn runaway production!  So I was ecstatic to discover the thrilling, hilarious AND locally…
