    The “L!fe Happens” House

    ‘ While getting my hair blown out at the Pasadena Blo-Out Lounge (one of my very favorite places) a couple of weeks ago, I caught a portion of the 2011 romantic comedy L!fe Happens, which I had never previously heard of.  Thanks to its obvious L.A. locales, the flick piqued my interest.  A rom-com filmed…

    Late Night!

    ‘ The GC and I returned home from Palm Springs very late last night due to the fact that we spent the entire day stalking a celebrity golf tournament, so I was unable to complete a blog post for today.  But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new post. Until next time, Happy…

    The Old Towne Orange Starbucks from “Surviving Christmas”

    ‘ There’s nothing this stalker loves more than a filming location that serves coffee.  When that filming location is a Starbucks?  Well, I’m in hog heaven!  So when I spotted an Old Towne Orange outpost of the java giant pop up in the 2004 holiday comedy Surviving Christmas, I immediately added it to my To-Stalk…

    Hilton Sonoma Wine Country – Where the Cast of “Scream” Stayed During Filming

    ‘ I typically begin compiling notes on a location and roughly outlining a post weeks before I hit publish.  Today’s article, about the Hilton Sonoma Wine Country, where the cast and crew of Scream stayed during the 1996 film’s 55-day shoot, is no different.  Sadly though, devastation struck shortly after I penned that preliminary edit. …

  • Echo Park

    Echo Park

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since June 2012, when I wrote my post about MacArthur Park from New Girl (which you can read here), was the similar-looking Echo Park in L.A.’s Echo Park neighborhood.  Sadly though, my efforts were thwarted for over a year due to an extensive restoration project…

    The “Teen Witch” “Top That” Street Rap

    ‘ There is no more iconic moment in the 1989 classic Teen Witch than the epic “Top That” street rap scene.  Stalking the location where it was filmed was pretty high up on my list of things to do while I was in L.A. recently (after stalking the main house featured in the movie first,…

    Counterpoint Records and Books from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ I obviously need to start paying closer attention to things because for years I was under the impression that all of the locations from fave movie A Lot Like Love had been tracked down.  But while scanning through the 2005 romcom to make screen captures for my recent post on the home where Oliver’s…
