  • Home Restaurant from “Raines”

    Home Restaurant from “Raines”

    ‘ Every once in a while a show comes along that immediately hooks me.  Such was the case with Raines, an extremely short-lived police procedural boasting a scant seven-episode run.  I was unaware of the NBC series at the time of its original airing in March 2007.  In fact, I only learned of it this…

  • The Frederick Mitchell Mooers House from “Mod Squad”

    The Frederick Mitchell Mooers House from “Mod Squad”

    ‘ As I’ve said before, stalking begets stalking.  Back in January, I wrote a post about a spectacular abandoned residence that had been featured in recent episodes of both Major Crimes and Parks and Recreation.  A longtime reader (a veeeery longtime reader, pretty sure he’s been with me since the beginning!) named John was intrigued…

  • Cindy’s Restaurant from “Surviving Christmas”

    Cindy’s Restaurant from “Surviving Christmas”

    ‘ I have made no secret of the fact that I majorly ration Christmas locations from year to year.  The sad truth is that few holiday flicks are lensed in the L.A. area (the city’s constant sunshine and lack of snow doesn’t exactly scream “Noel!”), which translates to a very minimal amount of holiday locales. …

  • Liberace’s Former Home

    Liberace’s Former Home

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while doing some stalking in the Valley, I became a bit obsessed with locating the home where legendary pianist Liberace lived back in the 1950s.  I first heard about this location, ironically enough, from comedian and Whose Line Is It Anyway? star Ryan Stiles, who also owned the property…

  • “The Seventh Sign” House

    “The Seventh Sign” House

    ‘ NOTE – This blog was supposed to post yesterday, but somehow did not, so it looks like I am a day late and a dollar short.  Sorry about that!  I would like to start off by wishing my fellow stalkers a very HAPPY HALLOWEEN!  I hope all of you have a fabulously spook-filled day. …

  • The “All of My Heart” Farmhouse

    The “All of My Heart” Farmhouse

    ‘ It seems that every time I turn around lately, I come across someone who is obsessed with Hallmark Channel made-for-television movies. First it was my grandma, who couldn’t stop talking about them at Christmas.  Around that same time, I started hearing about the flicks from my uncle’s girlfriend, who binge-watches them like crazy, much…

  • Grand Central Terminal’s Whispering Gallery

    Grand Central Terminal’s Whispering Gallery

    ‘ New York is a magical place.  I always describe it as such.  It is not just the abject filming locations, gorgeous architecture, and surplus of history that make the city so majestic, but the little, notable things that seem to be tucked around every corner.  Take for instance the Whispering Gallery at Grand Central…

  • Taking the Day Off

    Taking the Day Off

    ‘ Because I spent all day Friday taking care of my dad, who was not feeling well, and the rest of the weekend at the Hyatt Huntington Beach (pictured above), the spot which stands in for the new Beverly Hills Beach Club on fave show 90210, I was unfortunately not able to write a new…

  • Moody’s Bar and Grille from “Jerry Maguire”

    Moody’s Bar and Grille from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ Oh, how this stalker loves herself a dark, wood-paneled bar!  There is just something so warm and inviting about them, which is probably why they are featured regularly onscreen.  One that I was quite fixated on tracking down for years was the supposed Tempe, Arizona-area “Crocodile,” where Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) got stood up…

  • David Wallace’s House from “The Office” – Part II

    David Wallace’s House from “The Office” – Part II

    ‘ Until next time, Happy Stalking!  🙂 Stalk It: David Wallace’s (second) house from The Office is located at 5133 Louise Avenue in Encino.  You can visit the home’s real estate listing here. ‘
