    The Filming Locations of “Dawson’s Creek”

    ‘ Many, many moons ago, I began to compile what I call my “Stalking Bucket List” – a catalog of far-off filming locations that I would like to visit at some point during my lifetime.

    ‘ “Hello, Sidney.”  Two simple words, spoken by a gravelly-voiced serial killer shrouded by a Father Death mask in one of Scream’s early scenes, and the face of the horror movie genre was changed forever. An empty house and a ringing telephone suddenly had a much more sinister meaning.  Scream, which will be celebrating its…

    The Brass Monkey Bar from “Bad Santa”

    ‘ Another Christmas-themed location that I stalked recently was the Brass Elephant bar – the Monrovia-area watering hole that stood in for the similarly-named “Brass Monkey” bar where Sue (aka Lauren Graham) worked in my least-favorite holiday movie of all time, 2003’s Bad Santa.  Fellow stalker Chas, from the It’sFilmedThere website, had tracked down the…

    William McKinley High School from “Glee”

    ‘ My Hollywood obsession as of late is the new Fox musical dramedy Glee.  Actually, stating that I am obsessed with the series is a rather gross understatement.  To say it’s more of an all-out, withdrawal-symptom inducing addiction would be closer to the truth.  In fact, I don’t think I’ve been this enamored of a…

    Rain, Rain, Go Away!!

    ‘ I am sad to say that I had a lot more luck last year stalking the 79th Annual Academy Awards than I did this year at the 80th Annual Academy Awards. 🙁 We did have some fun, though! Yesterday morning, bright and early, my boyfriend and I headed to the Kodak Theatre at the…

    The “Good Luck Charlie” House

    ‘ During the lengthy process of researching the Melissa & Joey house (which many viewers seem to think has been used on another series – you can read my blog on it here), I came across a post on Julia Sweeten’s fabulous website, Hooked on Houses, about the residence where the Duncan family – dad…

    Stalking in Palmdale!

    ‘ My dad and I spent the entire day yesterday stalking locales in the Palmdale area – something I have been absolutely DYING to do for YEARS.  I was most excited about seeing the famed Four Aces movie set (pictured above), which appeared in an episode of The O.C. and the Lady Gaga/Beyonce “Telephone” music…
