    My Guide to L.A. – Shopping

    ‘ If there is one thing I love almost as much as stalking, it’s shopping – and shopping in Los Angeles is in a class all its own.  When I first moved to SoCal in 2000, I found myself in retail heaven.  The city boasts a myriad of cute shopping districts, fabulous marketplaces, and one-of-a-kind…

  • The Jerry Maguire House

    The Jerry Maguire House

    ‘ A couple of months ago, I gave Mike, from MovieShotsLA, the mission of locating Dorothy Boyd’”‘”‘s house from the 1996 movie Jerry Maguire.   From a quick internet search, Mike was able to ascertain that Dorothy’”‘”‘s tiny yellow house was located in an area of Manhattan Beach known as the “Tree Section”.  The home’”‘”‘s exact location, though, was…

  • The “Bad Santa” House

    The “Bad Santa” House

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, my good friend/fellow stalker Lavonna suggested that I do a Christmas movie stalking theme during the entire month of December.  I absolutely LOVED the idea, but,  unfortunately, by that time it was too late for me to get enough locations together and actually stalk them prior to December 1st. …

    Hamburger Hamlet from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ Halfway through writing this post, I realized I probably should have saved it until February.  At that point, though, it was too late to start over, so I figured c’est la vie.  Here goes.  A few years ago, when I first saw the “Galentine’s Day” episode of Parks and Recreation, I recognized the restaurant…

  • Bob Hope’s Former House – A Trick-or-Treating Mecca

    Bob Hope’s Former House – A Trick-or-Treating Mecca

    ‘ As I have mentioned a couple of times before on this blog, this stalker absolutely loves herself some Los Angeles Magazine – especially the ever-witty and always-informative “Ask Chris – The City Explained” write-in column, in which Associate Editor/author Chris Nichols answers Angelenos’ random questions about life in the City of Angels.  This month’s…

    Taking a Break . . .

    ‘ Unfortunately, I have no blog to publish today.  🙁  I had to rush my dad to the emergency room bright and early yesterday morning and wound up spending the entire day and most of the night with him in the hospital.  Which normally wouldn’t have precluded me from writing a post, but for some…

    St. Vincent Court from “The Mentalist”

    ‘ I cannot wait for the Secret L.A.-themed February issue of Los Angeles magazine to hit newsstands!  The City of Angels is chock full of tucked-away gems and I absolutely love discovering them.  The Grim Cheaper and I just stalked one, in fact, that is also a filming location – St. Vincent Court, which appeared…

    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…

  • Donna’s House from “Rosewood”

    Donna’s House from “Rosewood”

    ‘ I’ve never met a police procedural I didn’t like.  When one centers around an insanely charming male lead who constantly (and comically) spars with his cynical female partner, it’s a guarantee it will make my top ten.  Such was the case with the FOX drama Rosewood, which began airing in 2015.  For those who…
