  • The Second Peach Pit

    The Second Peach Pit

    ‘ Two weekends ago, thanks to Mike from MovieShotsLA, I was able to stalk a location that I have long been on the lookout for – the storefront that was used as the second Peach Pit on the original Beverly Hills, 90210  series.   Yes, I did say the “second” Peach Pit.  As most fans of the series…

  • Hollywood Center Motel

    Hollywood Center Motel

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up to ask me if I knew that my latest Hollywood crush, Simon Baker, had one of his earliest acting roles in the 1997 movie  L.A. Confidential.  And I almost fell out of my chair!  Even though I’”‘”‘ve seen that movie about a hundred times, I never realized…

    Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ One location that had been lingering at the top of my To-Stalk for more than a few months was Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, which stands in for Pawnee Saint Joseph Hospital, where Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) works, on fave show Parks and Recreation.  I found this locale thanks to Mike, from…

  • Touring Paramount . . . Again

    Touring Paramount . . . Again

    ‘ I spent this past Friday on the Paramount tour and doing some other miscellaneous stalking with my good friend and fellow stalker Lavonna and a group of her girlfriends, who were all in town visiting from Ohio.  Because we were out and about all day, I did not have time to write a post…

  • June’s House from “White Collar”

    June’s House from “White Collar”

    ‘ Sometimes the work and detail that go into creating certain locations absolutely boggles my mind.  Case in point – the house belonging to June (Diahann Carroll) on the USA series White Collar.  The imposing residence is actually an amalgamation of three different places – a spectacular estate on New York’s Upper West Side, the…

  • The “Portal” Light Installation

    The “Portal” Light Installation

    ‘ Today’s locale can be filed in the hidden-gem-that-is-not-a-filming-location category, much like the Barthman Sidewalk Clock in New York.  (Well, it’”‘”‘s not really a filming location, but more on that in a bit.)  This one is located in Los Angeles, though, and is a definite must-see under-the-radar spot.  Looking back, I can’t remember how I…

  • The Lobster Shack from “Easy A”

    The Lobster Shack from “Easy A”

    ‘ Another location from fave movie Easy A that fellow stalker Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, informed me of while the Grim Cheaper and I were out and about doing some stalking in the Ojai area almost two years ago was the Carrows Restaurant that masqueraded as the Lobster Shack where Woodchuck…

  • The Never Been Kissed High School

    The Never Been Kissed High School

    ‘ Yesterday, I dragged my mom out to a location I have been meaning to stalk for years now – the school that stood in for South Glen High School in the 1999 romantic comedy Never Been Kissed.   In actuality, though, the school where filming took place wasn’”‘”‘t a high school at all, but a huge middle school…

  • Hilton Pasadena from “The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training”

    Hilton Pasadena from “The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training”

    ‘ I always love it when a filming location sneaks up on me.  This past weekend, the Grim Cheaper and I headed to Pasadena to attend the closing party for my favorite store, Lula Mae.  (Yes, you read that right – Lula Mae, my happy place, is, sadly, shuttering later this month.  While I am…
