Saddle Peak Lodge from “Bones”
‘ There is no shortage of historic restaurants in Los Angeles that have appeared onscreen. Despite their abundance, I thought I was well-versed on pretty much all of them. One I went completely unaware of for years, though, was Saddle Peak Lodge in Calabasas. I only learned of the 100-plus-year-old eatery in March 2013 while…

More Clowning Around!
‘ I spent all day yesterday doing some more touring with my friends Lavonna and Kim – including the Dearly Departed Tour, which I canNOT tell you how excited I was to finally go on and which will definitely be an upcoming blog post. Anyway, I, unfortunately, did not have time to write a new…

Julian Café & Bakery from “Phantasm”
‘ I am not at all a fan of the 1979 movie Phantasm, though you’d never guess it judging by the amount of posts I’ve done on its locations (you can read them here, here, here, here and here). What can I say? Crappy film, fabulous locales! Ever since I first saw the flick last…

The TKTS Booth from “Glee”
‘ I’ve made no secret of the fact that I bailed on the television series Glee shortly after the second part of the first season began airing. In my opinion, after starting out so strong, the show totally jumped the shark at that point. But because I love the Big Apple, I did make sure…

The Independence Day House
‘ One of the locations at the very top of fellow stalker Owen’”‘”‘s “To Find” list was the house belonging to Captain Steven Hiller, aka Will Smith, and his girlfriend Jasmine Dubrow, aka Vivica A. Fox, in the 1996 blockbuster movie Independence Day. So, a few weeks ago, Owen enlisted the help of master stalker Chas and, amazingly…

Aldo’s Coffee Shop – Where Sonny Met Cher
‘ On the November 4th episode of Dancing with the Stars, which featured singer Cher as a guest judge, contestants Leah Remini and Tony Dovolani danced a Viennese Waltz that adorably reenacted Cher’s first encounter with Sonny Bono to the 1965 hit “I Got You Babe.” In the segment showing Leah and Tony prepping for…

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…

The “Beaches” Mansion
‘ One location that I have been asked about repeatedly ever since I first started my blog almost four years ago (and I CANNOT even believe that it has been that long!!!) is the large Tudor-style mansion where Hillary Whitney Essex (aka Barbara Hershey) lived in the 1988 tearjerker Beaches. And while it had long…

Nicole Simpson’s Condo from “The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story”
‘ Today’s location is one of the most interesting that I’ve ever uncovered! As I mentioned in Friday’s post about O.J. Simpson’s mansion from The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story (which proved to be rather timely considering the “buried knife” story that was released that same day), the Grim Cheaper and I are…

The “Larry Crowne” Cul-de-sac
‘ The last Larry Crowne location that I stalked recently – and there will be more coming, believe me, because Mike, from MovieShotsLA, has found quite a few others – is the cul-de-sac where Larry Crowne (aka Tom Hanks) and his garage-sale-hosting neighbors, Lamar Johnson (aka Cedric the Entertainer) and wife B’Ella Johnson (aka Taraji…
