  • The “Portal” Light Installation

    The “Portal” Light Installation

    ‘ Today’s locale can be filed in the hidden-gem-that-is-not-a-filming-location category, much like the Barthman Sidewalk Clock in New York.  (Well, it’”‘”‘s not really a filming location, but more on that in a bit.)  This one is located in Los Angeles, though, and is a definite must-see under-the-radar spot.  Looking back, I can’t remember how I…

  • Touring the WB Ranch

    Touring the WB Ranch

    ‘ My good friends Lavonna and Kim are in town this week visiting from Ohio and we spent all day yesterday touring various studios, including one of my personal favorites – the Warner Bros. Ranch.  So I, unfortunately, did not have time to write a new post for today.  But I will be back tomorrow…

  • The Harper House from “Scream 3”

    The Harper House from “Scream 3”

    ‘ Last Thursday afternoon, before grabbing lunch at Pinches Tacos from The Hills which I blogged about on Tuesday, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me by a famous apartment complex in West Hollywood named the Harper House.  Because the Spanish Baroque-style building was featured in Scream 3 (as well as countless other productions), Mike thought that…

  • The Ladies’ Villa from Season 1 of “The Bachelor”

    The Ladies’ Villa from Season 1 of “The Bachelor”

    ‘ Another location that I became obsessed with tracking down thanks to the Best of The Bachelor DVD that my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, recently gifted me was the so-called “Ladies’ Villa” – the Mediterranean-style manse where the female contestants lived during the filming of the popular reality series’ inaugural…

  • Via Quadronno from “Sex and the City”

    Via Quadronno from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ Nothing makes me miss New York more than photographs of croissants.  That’s a weird sentiment, I know – especially considering I don’t even really like croissants.  But during one of my first trips to the Big Apple, I dragged my family to Upper East Side café Via Quadronno for breakfast after coming across a…

  • Mayo Clinic – Here We Come!

    Mayo Clinic – Here We Come!

    ‘ Because I spent all day Saturday en route to Minnesota to accompany my dad to the Mayo Clinic and because I spent all day Sunday STALKING the Twin Cities (I stalked a record 18 locations in all), I had no time to write a blog post for today.  So, I am taking the day off,…

  • The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    ‘ Locations have been making impressions on me for ages, long before I even knew stalking was a thing.  Case in point – way back in 1997 while watching The Ice Storm, I became fixated on the ornate stone staircase Libbets Casey (Katie Holmes) walked down in an early scene.  Even though I only saw…

  • Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center from “Parks and Recreation”

    Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ One location that had been lingering at the top of my To-Stalk for more than a few months was Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, which stands in for Pawnee Saint Joseph Hospital, where Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) works, on fave show Parks and Recreation.  I found this locale thanks to Mike, from…

  • Marilyn Merlot

    Marilyn Merlot

    ‘ I am still very much in the throws of my Marilyn Monroe obsession, and it is definitely true what they say – the more you think about something, the more you attract that thing to you. My father happened to be going through his wine collection last week and discovered a bottle of “Marilyn…

  • Win A Date With Tad Hamilton!

    Win A Date With Tad Hamilton!

    ‘ Being that I am completely obsessed with Josh Duhamel, one of my favorite movies of all time is (don’”‘”‘t laugh!) Win A Date With Tad Hamilton! In all honesty, the only thing I don’”‘”‘t like about Win A Date is the ending – Kate Bosworth so should have chosen Josh over Topher! 🙂 Otherwise…
