The Erin Brockovich House
‘ Many, many months ago my very good friend and fellow stalker Kerry challenged me to find Julia Roberts‘”‘”‘ house from the Academy Award winning movie Erin Brockovich. Kerry knew that the home was located somewhere in the Ventura area, but had no idea of its exact whereabouts. So, I, of course, enlisted the help of Mike,…

30th Street Station from “Trading Places”
‘ If you’re a filming location buff, you really shouldn’t travel to Philadelphia without first seeing Trading Places, the 1983 Dan Aykroyd/Eddie Murphy comedy set in the City of Brotherly Love. And filming location buff or not, you really shouldn’t leave Philly without a visit to 30th Street Station, the city’s main railroad depot which…

Mercedes’ Apartment Building from “Larry Crowne”
‘ The only Larry Crowne filming location that fellow stalker Mike, from MovieShotsLA, did not track down was the mid-century-style apartment building where East Valley Community College professor Mercedes Tainot (aka Julia Roberts) – that’s “T-A-I-N-O-T, not Tae Bow, not Tai Chi, not Tie Knot” – lived with her philandering husband, Dean Tainot (aka Bryan…

The Viper Room from “Entourage”
‘ Once I found the location of Zebra tattoo parlor, on which Jeremy Piven’s name was displayed during the opening credits of Entourage each week (I blogged about it here), I just had to track down the spot where cutie Jerry Ferrara’s moniker was showcased. Upon finally doing so, I was a bit embarrassed that…

Library Bar from “Parenthood”
‘ In his bestselling book Outliers: The Story of Success, author Malcolm Gladwell asserts that a person needs 10,000 hours of practice at something in order to become an expert. I’ve been writing my blog for about nine years now, working on it at least eight hours a day, five days a week, which translates…

Jim and Pam’s House from “The Office”
‘ One location that I stalked back in April while fellow stalker Lavonna and her daughter Melissa were in town was the house that Jim Halpert (aka John Krasinksi) purchased for his fiancé Pam Beesly (aka Jenna Fischer) in the Season 5 episode of The Office titled “Frame Toby”. At the time I had never…

Becky Bloomwood Takes on the El Capitan!
‘ I have long been obsessed with the “Confessions of a Shopaholic” book series authored by British novelist Sophie Kinsella (aka Madeline Wickham). So obsessed in fact that about five years ago when I heard that Hollywood was optioning a screenplay based on the novels, I wrote to Sophie pitching myself for the movie’”‘”‘s lead role. I must say that I…

Jason Mesnick’s Bachelor Pad
‘ Monday night’”‘”‘s episode of The Bachelor was all that RealitySteve promised it would be – and more! The show played out pretty much EXACTLY as he said it would and I completely agree with him that the finale’”‘”‘s “shocking twist” was a set-up from the get-go. Something about Molly’”‘”‘s reaction during the After the Final Rose …

The “Yes, Dear” House
‘ One show that I never really understood the appeal of is Yes, Dear. My dad loved the sitcom, which ran from 2000 to 2006, and watched it regularly, but I always found the characters slightly unlikable and the storylines a bit ridiculous. Nevertheless, when I received an email from a fellow stalker named Jeremy…

Dana’s House from “The Goldbergs”
‘ Brenda and Dylan. Winnie and Kevin. Rachel and Joey. Adam and Dana. All TV couples who didn’t wind up together, but who, in my never-to-be-humble opinion, really should have. Though, since The Goldbergs is still on the air, I guess there’s still hope for the latter two. I mean, any romance that starts out…
