    The “WarGames” 7-Eleven

    ‘ I am not a spontaneous person by nature.  I much prefer planning things out, especially when it comes to vacations.  Typically when going on a trip, I investigate any and all filming that has been done in the area we are heading to.  As I mentioned in Monday’s post, though, our Big Bear Lake…

  • Jay and Gloria’s House from “Modern Family”

    Jay and Gloria’s House from “Modern Family”

    ‘ Once fellow stalker Robert, from the website Movie Locations and More, tracked down Phil and Claire’s house and Mitchell and Cameron’s duplex from the new hit series Modern Family, I set my sights on locating the modern-style abode where Jay (aka Ed O’Neill), Gloria (aka Sophia Vergara), and their son Manny (aka Rico Rodriguez)…

    Spencer and Heidi’s Wedding!

    ‘ My favorite reality TV duo, better known as Heidi and Spencer, have caused a media shitstorm yet again by announcing that they will be tying the knot – for real this time – in two short weeks right in my hometown of Pasadena.  🙂  Early in the week, I actually got a tip that Speidi would…

    The Vera Wang Flagship Salon

    ‘ While I realize that today should really be the start of my annual, month long “Haunted Hollywood” theme, since I am on a plane right now headed to Manhattan, I decided to write a post about New York, my favorite city in the world, instead.  🙂  And since I’”‘”‘ve had weddings on the brain ever since…

  • The “Mama’s Family” Houses

    The “Mama’s Family” Houses

    ‘ I have dreamed of writing this post for so long!  One of the locations I get asked about the most (I literally get emails and comments about it all the time!) is the house that portrayed Thelma Harper’s (Vicki Lawrence) residence during the first two seasons of Mama’s Family.  For those who aren’t familiar…

  • Jane’s House from “Big Little Lies”

    Jane’s House from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ I am extremely biased when it comes to my former stomping ground of Pasadena, where I lived for close to 15 years.  Though I’ve heard on more than one occasion from L.A. denizens that the city is too suburban and too far removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life, I think it…

  • The “Big” Paddleball Court

    The “Big” Paddleball Court

    ‘ Another day, another Big location.  And, sadly, this is actually the last Big location that I have to blog about.  🙁  Well, from this year’s New York trip, anyway.  Being that fellow stalker Owen recently tracked down both the MacMillan Toys headquarters and Tom Hank’s loft from the movie, it looks like I’ll have…

    A Free View of Universal Studio’s “War of the Worlds” Set!

    ‘ Many moons ago, shortly after we first met, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me to a place that quickly became one of my very favorite “only in L.A.” spots –  a residential street from which the Universal Studios War of the Worlds plane crash set is visible.  And even though I always make it a…

  • Redwood Bar & Grill from “Bridesmaids”

    Redwood Bar & Grill from “Bridesmaids”

    ‘ Once the rain finally stopped falling this past Saturday morning, I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to downtown Los Angeles to stalk a Bridesmaids location that has been at the very top of my To-Stalk list for months now – Redwood Bar & Grill, where Officer Rhodes (Chris O’Dowd) and Annie Walker (Kristen Wiig)…

  • Vitello’s Italian Restaurant from “The Deep End of the Ocean”

    Vitello’s Italian Restaurant from “The Deep End of the Ocean”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, after doing some stalking in Beverly Hills, the Grim Cheaper and I decided to head over to the Valley to grab dinner at one of our very favorite eateries in all of Los Angeles – Vitello’s Italian Restaurant in Studio City.  And even though I have blogged about the…
