The Beverly Hills, 90210 Spring Dance!
‘ A few weeks ago, I happened to pop in my Beverly Hills, 90210 Season 1 DVDs to watch the “Spring Dance” episode – one of my very favorite 90210episodes of all time! As I scrolled through the DVD menu, I realized that, unbelievably, I had yet to watch that episode accompanied by the commentary by series’”‘”‘…

Burbank Town Center Mall from the Season 3 Finale of “The Mentalist”
‘ While watching the two-part Season 3 finale of fave show The Mentalist titled “Strawberries and Cream” a few weeks back, I just about died when I realized that the Burbank Town Center had stood in for the supposed Sacramento-area “Pinewood Shopping Mall” in the episode’s climatic final scene. While Burbank Town Center is not…

A Filming Location Tour of “Schitt’s Creek”
‘ I’m interrupting My Guide to Palm Springs to bring you a very special guest post about Schitt’s Creek’s filming locations penned by my BFF Nat. I’ve dragged Nat out on many a stalking adventure throughout our long friendship, but it was not until she recently fell in love with the Pop TV series Schitt’s…

Vertical Wine Bistro
‘ Even though I am not usually a going-out-on-New-Year’s-Eve type of girl, this year I wanted nothing more than to ring in 2010 with a glass of champagne at my very favorite restaurant, POP Champagne Bar in Pasadena. But being that I am not now, nor never have been, a night person – I can’t…

“It Never Rains In Southern California . . . “
‘ As the old Albert Hammond song says “It never rains in Southern California, but girl, don’”‘”‘t they warn ya, it pours man, it pours!” And pour it did almost all last week all over the normally sun drenched landscape of Los Angeles. While on my way to stalk Burbank’”‘”‘s Handy Grocery Store in the pouring rain this…

Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”
‘ Today’s locale is another one of those facepalm spots. For ages, I had been trying to track down the interior of the diner where Mitch (Owen Wilson) and the boys discussed saving their fraternity in the 2003 comedy Old School. While I had long known that Montrose Bakery & Café (which, sadly, Yelp is…

Hope and Michael’s House from “thirtysomething”
‘ I think Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick are two of the greatest television producers ever to walk the face of the earth. Oddly though, while I am obsessed with both My So-Called Life and Relativity (as evidenced here and here), I was never a fan of thirtysomething, one of their earliest forays into the…

Molly Malone’s from “Patriot Games”
‘ Way back in mid-June, while trying to track down the Irish pub that masquerades as Scully’s bar on fave show Parks and Recreation (a location that I still have, maddeningly, yet to find, by the way), I came across a website for a Fairfax District-area watering hole named Molly Malone’s. The website mentioned that…

Ed and Tori’s Coffee Shop Meet-Up from “Big Little Lies”
‘ If the news reports currently lighting up the internet are to be believed, the drama that took place behind the scenes of Big Little Lies’ latest season is far headier than that which unfolded onscreen! At the center of the dustup, per a recent IndieWire exposé, is Jean-Marc Vallée, the director of the series’…

Will Rogers Memorial Park from “90210”
‘ As I mentioned yesterday, my fiancé and I spent quite a bit of last weekend making up for lost time, so to speak, by catching up on all of the stalking that I had been putting off over the past few months while my dad was ill. The location that I was most excited…
