    Old Tony’s on the Pier from "The O.C."

    ‘ The Baader-Meinhof phenomenon has been in full effect lately when it comes to Old Tony’s on the Pier, a Redondo Beach restaurant I stalked way back in January 2012 with my good friend Mike (he provided many of the images in this post), but have yet to blog about.  First, Alison Martino, founder of…

    The Piru United Methodist Church

    ‘ Before the Grim Cheaper and I embarked on our Heritage Valley stalking trip three weekends ago, I did some cyber-stalking of the area and came across this page on fellow stalker Gary’”‘”‘s Seeing Stars website which detailed the Piru United Methodist Church’s appearance in the Season 1 episode of True Blood titled “Sparks Fly…

  • The Arts District Firehouse Hotel from “ER”

    The Arts District Firehouse Hotel from “ER”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper likes to say that I fixate on the silliest of things.  I typically scoff at the notion, but he’s 100% right.  Case in point – a few months back favorite blogger Emily Schuman, of Cupcakes and Cashmere, did a photo shoot at the Arts District Firehouse Hotel, a stylish fire-station-turned-lodging in…

    Boris Karloff’s Former Home

    ‘ The Haunting of Hill House is giving me life right now!  To say I am obsessed with the spooky new Netflix original series would be an understatement.  I am currently only five episodes in (so no spoilers please!), but am absolutely mesmerized by the storyline, the characters, the actors (it is amazing how much…

    Dennis Feinstein Headquarters from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ 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.  While watching the Season 7 episode titled “Save JJ’s,” I…

    “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    ‘ One location that fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for what seems like years now is the parking lot where Robbie (aka Adam Sandler) and Julia (aka Drew Barrymore) tested Sammy’s (aka Allen Covert’s) limo driving skills in fave movie The Wedding Singer.  And I think I can safely say that…

    Neptune’s Net from “The Hills”

    ‘ One location that had been at the top of my To-Stalk list for a couple of years, but had, for whatever reason, remained unstalked was Neptune’s Net – an oft-filmed-at eatery and Malibu institution that was featured on one of my favorite shows of all time, The Hills, in a scene featuring none other…

    Shannen Doherty’s Former Mulholland Drive Rental

    ‘ Another locale that I found thanks to Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites, the fabulous book written by my buddy E.J. of The Movieland Directory, was the house at 13459 Mulholland Drive that was once rented by my girl Shannen Doherty and that was also the location of her ill-fated 1993 nuptials to Ashley Hamilton,…

  • Griffith Observatory

    Griffith Observatory

    ‘ A couple of months ago I dragged my parents and my then-fiancé/now husband out to Los Feliz to do some stalking of the Griffith Observatory in Griffith Park – a place which I had never before visited despite having lived in Los Angeles for over a decade.  I had actually wanted to stalk the…

    On Location With “Peep World”!

    ‘ Yesterday, while heading to fave bookstore Vroman’”‘”‘s to pick up a stalking book  I had special ordered, I happened upon a small crew filming on the sidewalk at the store’”‘”‘s entrance.  One of the policemen on duty was extremely nice and told me that the movie being filmed was a low-budget indie entitled Peep World. …
