    The Standard Hotel

    ‘ My friend Stephanie, who is even more obsessed with Sex and the City than I am, has a birthday coming up this Friday, so I decided to do a little post today in her honor. In Stephanie’”‘”‘s favorite SATC episodes, entitled “Escape from New York” and “Sex in Another City”, Carrie and the Girls…

    Phil’s Bar from “Little Black Book”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, I got on a kick of tracking down locations from fave movie Little Black Book.  Now I should mention here, before I go any further, that the 2004 romantic comedy really isn’t all that good.  I can’t explain why I love it as much as I do, but I…

    "I’d Like to Exchange an Egg . . . "

    ‘ At the risk of this site becoming strictly a blog about 90210, I just had to do a post about another location from the iconic 90s television show. I finally got Season 2 of the series on DVD and this weekend I spent many hours glued to my television set watching it. And I…

    Sorry For the Delay . . .

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past week.  We had friends in town visiting and I was a little remiss in my blogging duties.  I did do a ton of stalking while they were here, though (we even ran into Ken Todd while stalking TomTom, as you can see above!), so a bunch…

  • The “13 Going On 30” Houses

    The “13 Going On 30” Houses

    ‘ If someone asked me what movie most closely resembles my life, I would have to say 13 Going On 30. I am definitely a child of the 80s, I still dress like a 13 year old most of the time, and I’”‘”‘ve been known to do the Thriller Dance at a few parties, so it’”‘”‘s only natural…

  • Vibiana

    Vibiana

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while spending the weekend at the Hilton Checkers Hotel, I stumbled upon a filming location I had been meaning to stalk for quite some time – a former cathedral named Vibiana located in Downtown Los Angeles.   While walking back to the hotel after grabbing a Starbucks :), I saw what looked like a wedding being set up…

  • The Hyatt Regency Valencia from “Little Miss Sunshine”

    The Hyatt Regency Valencia from “Little Miss Sunshine”

    ‘ A couple of months ago, the Grim Cheaper and I sat down to re-watch fave 2006 dramedy Little Miss Sunshine and I just about fell out of my chair when I spotted the Hyatt Regency Valencia pop up in a brief scene.  I had actually stalked and blogged about the Santa Clarita-area hotel way back…

  • The Adamson House

    The Adamson House

    ‘ I spent all last week on the hunt for a location from my fave 90s TV show Beverly Hills, 90210.  The spot I was looking for was the location that stood in for Baja, Mexico in the Season 2 episode entitled “Mexican Standoff”.  In the episode, Brenda sneaks off to a Mexican resort town for the weekend with Dylan without telling…

  • My Latest Interview with US Modernist Radio

    My Latest Interview with US Modernist Radio

    ‘ I apologize for being MIA the past couple of days.  Both of my parents had surgery last week (my mom’s planned, my dad’s completely unplanned), so things have been hectic to say the least.  My dad was finally released from the hospital yesterday and I am hoping to have a new post up tomorrow,…

    The Other “Catch Me If You Can” House

    ‘ A few years ago during an acting class, my very favorite acting teacher, Annie, happened to mention that the Catch Me If You Can house was located just around the corner from where she then lived in Studio City.  She said she had been walking her dogs one afternoon back in 2002 and had…
