    The Houses from the Movie “Big”

    ‘ Right around the corner from The King of Queens house, which I blogged about on Friday, are the two main houses used in the 1988 Tom Hanks movie Big.  And when I say “right around the corner”, I literally mean RIGHT around the corner.  The King of Queens  house and the Big  houses are…

    The Night Before the Night Before Party

    ‘ Last night I dragged my boyfriend to the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel to do a little stalking of the “Night Before the Night Before Party” that was being held at Wolfgang Puck’”‘”‘s restaurant Cut located inside the hotel. I must say that aside from seeing Jeffrey Katzenberg (who is teeny tiny!!), the night was…

    Andrew’s House from “A to Z”

    ‘ Networks have recently begun the practice of digitally releasing the pilot episodes of new shows weeks before their scheduled premiere dates.  I think it’s a genius maneuver and have been relishing watching them all.  One that I perused, on the recommendation of fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, was A…

    Mickey’s Diner from “The Mighty Ducks”

    ‘ I thought I’d give y’all a break from the myriad of Beautiful Girls locations that I’ve been blogging about as of late by dedicating today’s post to a very famous and historic St. Paul restaurant named Mickey’s Diner.  The diner is something of a Twin Cities landmark and pretty much every Native Minnesotan that…

    Hope and Michael’s House from “thirtysomething”

    ‘ I think Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick are two of the greatest television producers ever to walk the face of the earth.  Oddly though, while I am obsessed with both My So-Called Life and Relativity (as evidenced here and here), I was never a fan of thirtysomething, one of their earliest forays into the…

    Pete’s House from “Bridesmaids”

    ‘ Speaking of Cameron Woods (in case you missed Monday’s post, you can read it here) . . . while wandering around the neighborhood recently I was reminded of a spot that I stalked long ago but had yet to blog about – the house belonging to Pete (Brian Petsos) in the 2011 comedy Bridesmaids.  …

    April and Andy’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ I hope y’all are not getting tired of my many Parks and Recreation posts, ‘cause here I am yet again with yet another locale from the series that was provided to me, per usual, by fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog – this time the supposed Pawnee, Indiana-area residence where…

    Latest Discover L.A. Article – About SciFi Locations

    ‘ Be sure to check out my latest article for Discover Los Angeles.  I went quite a bit outside of my comfort zone for this one and wrote about unusual landscapes and buildings featured in iconic science fiction movies – a genre I am not a huge fan of.  I think it turned out well…

    Aroma Coffee & Tea Company in Studio City

    ‘ As I mentioned in Monday’s post, despite my drama-filled day on Friday, this past weekend actually turned out to be pretty darn nice.  It all started with a Saturday morning stalking trip out to Studio City’s Aroma Coffee & Tea Company, which I had read about the previous week while doing some online research…
