The Blind Donkey from “Revenge”

The Mütter Museum of The College of Physicians of Philadelphia
‘ I am into some admittedly weird stuff – murders, hauntings, all things macabre. But a place I learned about while planning my 2016 trip to Pennsylvania seemed even a bit too morbid for me.

‘ Though I chronicled the main locations used on Parks and Recreation pretty extensively for Los Angeles magazine in March, I still have a few of the series’ less prominent locales stockpiled in my backlog and figured it was about time that I covered them.

24/7 Restaurant from Glamour Magazine’s “Glee Gets Glam” Photo Shoot

Hanging Out on the Set of 90210!
‘ I have to take a day off once again today – I know, I know, I’”‘”‘m sorry! 🙁 – due to the fact that I spent all day yesterday hanging out watching the filming of 90210 in Pasadena and therefore did not have time to write a post. The whole thing was an absolutely…

AFI’s Warner Bros. Building – aka the Hospital from “The Artist”
‘ Another locale from The Artist that I found thanks to John Bengtson’s fabulous Silent Locations blog was the Warner Bros.

The “Little Miss Sunshine” Motel
‘ Another Little Miss Sunshine locale that I desperately wanted to stalk was the supposed Arizona motel where the Hoover family – Olive (Abigail Breslin), Richard (Greg Kinnear), Sheryl (Toni Collette), Dwayne (Paul Dano), Grandpa Edwin (Alan Arkin), and Frank Ginsberg (Steve Carell) – stayed mid-way through their road trip from Albuquerque to Redondo Beach…
