  • The Adamson House from “You”

    The Adamson House from “You”

    ‘ The second season of You had me feeling like an inadequate Angelino!  (Yes, even though I now live in Palm Springs, I still consider myself an L.A. denizen.)  In episode 6, “Farewell, My Bunny,” Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti) and her friends teach Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) about Los Angeles’ “seven totems,” which, once seen,…

    New “L.A.” Mag Post – About the Los Altos Apartments

    ‘ Be sure to check out my new Los Angeles magazine post here – about the Los Altos Apartments from Transparent.  My articles typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours. ‘

  • Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    ‘ I do not have the best taste in movies and am the first to admit it.  Case in point – Just My Luck, a 2006 Lindsay Lohan romcom that I absolutely love.  Have I lost you already?  If so, it’s understandable.  But I find the film adorable.  I’ve seen it about a hundred times…

  • Ugo Café from “The Morning Show”

    Ugo Café from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ The Season 1 finale of The Morning Show might have been one of the finest hours of television ever created!  It left me equal parts heartbroken, disgusted, and hopeful, with the last few minutes propelling me out of my seat, literally jumping for joy and teeming with spit and vinegar, ready to take on…

  • Joseph’s Café – Where Britney Spears Met Kevin Federline

    Joseph’s Café – Where Britney Spears Met Kevin Federline

    ‘ Circa 2000, I thought Britney Spears was everything!  Obviously, I don’t anymore (a person can only go into a gas station restroom barefoot so many times before I start to think they’re someone I shouldn’t be emulating), but ever since watching the Lifetime biopic Britney Ever After two weeks ago, I’ve had the pop…

  • The “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?” House

    The “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?” House

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while perusing through Chris Epting’s Marilyn Monroe Dyed Here: More Locations of America’s Pop Culture Landmarks in order to get a little inspiration for my Haunted Hollywood postings, I came across an entry about the home used in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? I had actually never before…

  • 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…

  • 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)…

  • Neve Campbell’s Former Haunted House

    Neve Campbell’s Former Haunted House

    ‘ I love a good haunted house, especially at this time of year.  One owned by a celebrity is even better.  One owned by the star of my favorite horror film of all time?  Well, I can’t think of anything more thrilling – or more perfectly suited to my annual October postings.  So when I…

  • Sad Day for Stalkers!

    ‘ Sad news!! Tony just posted a comment on my Top Gun Bar post letting me know that a fire destroyed Kansas City Barbeque, aka the Top Gun Bar, this past Thursday afternoon. This has NOT been a good month for fires and filming locations – first Universal and now this. 🙁 At approximately 2:15PM…
