  • Jason Mesnick’s Bachelor Pad

    Jason Mesnick’s Bachelor Pad

    ‘ Monday night’”‘”‘s episode of The Bachelor  was all that RealitySteve  promised it would be – and more!  The show played out pretty much EXACTLY as he said it would and I completely agree with him that the finale’”‘”‘s “shocking twist” was a set-up from the get-go.  Something about Molly’”‘”‘s reaction during the After the Final Rose …

  • Helen Bernstein High School – The New William McKinley High from “Glee”

    Helen Bernstein High School – The New William McKinley High from “Glee”

    ‘ A little birdie recently told me that fave show Glee was no longer filming on location at Juan Cabrillo High School in Long Beach – a locale which I blogged about back in January of this year – and that producers had found a new school to stand in for the fictional William McKinley…

  • The Former Menendez Family Home

    The Former Menendez Family Home

    ‘ Just around the corner from Vincente Minnelli’s former abandoned mansion (which I blogged about yesterday) is the palatial Elm Drive residence where on August 20th, 1989, brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez (then 22- and 19-years-old, respectively) shot and killed their parents, entertainment company executive Jose and housewife Mary Louise, aka “Kitty.”  (I honestly cannot…

  • The Marsh House from “Happy Land”

    The Marsh House from “Happy Land”

    ‘ Since we’re on the subject of McDonald Avenue (you can read Wednesday’s post about the McDonald Mansion from Pollyanna here), I figured I should write about another of its famous homes.  While doing research on the picturesque Santa Rosa street, one of the area’s most oft-filmed spots, prior to my trip up to Northern…

    Virginia City Stalking!

    ‘ I am currently visiting my Grandma in the Reno area and today she took me to historic Virginia City to do some sightseeing. Anytime I am in a new town, I always stop into the local visitor’”‘”‘s center or bookstore to ask if any movies have been filmed in the area. What’”‘”‘s that old…

  • The Newhall Mansion from “Charmed”

    The Newhall Mansion from “Charmed”

    ‘ Another location that the Grim Cheaper and I visited two Saturdays ago while doing some stalking in the Heritage Valley area was the Newhall Mansion, formerly the Piru Mansion, which fellow stalker Chas, from the ItsFilmedThere website, had told me about a few weeks prior.  The Newhall Mansion has appeared in countless productions over…

  • A “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” Halloween

    A “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” Halloween

    ‘ I usually start planning my and the Grim Cheaper’s Halloween costumes on November 1st each year.  Out with the old, in with the new, as they say.  This year I was a bit late to the game because by the time mid-summer came around, I still found myself with no ideas.  And then, on…

    Happy Fourth of July!

    ‘ I will be taking the next couple of days off from blogging in order to celebrate the Fourth of July weekend with the Grim Cheaper and Mike, from MovieShotsLA, who is in town for a  visit.  (Yay!)  I know, I know – I just got back from a two-week vacation!  But such is life.…

  • Pappy & Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace from “Ingrid Goes West”

    Pappy & Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace from “Ingrid Goes West”

    ‘ Ingrid Goes West is perhaps the most topically poignant movie I’ve ever seen!  Centering around Ingrid Thorburn (Aubrey Plaza), a fragile young woman who picks up and moves from Pennsylvania to L.A. in the hopes of ingratiating herself into the life of influencer Taylor Sloane (Elizabeth Olsen), the 2017 black comedy highlights the pitfalls…
