    The Pierre Hotel’s Grand Ballroom from “Trainwreck”

    ‘ I know I am in the minority when I say that I don’t think Amy Schumer is funny.  And it’s not for lack of trying on my part.  I first learned of the comedian when she appeared on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season of The Bachelorette and found her schtick to be a bit annoying.  Despite…

    "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…

  • Auntie Em’s Kitchen from “L!fe Happens”

    Auntie Em’s Kitchen from “L!fe Happens”

    ‘ I recently re-watched the 2011 romantic comedy L!fe Happens and I have to say that I enjoyed it much more the second time around.  One of the locations featured in it – Auntie Em’s Kitchen in Eagle Rock – I had actually recognized during my first viewing.  I used to drive by the place…

  • Dennis Feinstein Headquarters from “Parks and Recreation”

    Dennis Feinstein Headquarters from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ Though I chronicled the main locations used on Parks and Recreation pretty extensively for Los Angeles magazine in March, I still have a few of the series’ less prominent locales stockpiled in my backlog and figured it was about time that I covered them.  While watching the Season 7 episode titled “Save JJ’s,” I…

    The “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?” House

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while perusing through Chris Epting’s Marilyn Monroe Dyed Here: More Locations of America’s Pop Culture Landmarks in order to get a little inspiration for my Haunted Hollywood postings, I came across an entry about the home used in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? I had actually never before…

  • Stalking in Palmdale!

    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…

    Millions of Milkshakes

    ‘ Thanks to the earthquake which jolted me awake at around 4 O’clock this morning after which I was not able to fall back asleep, I am currently feeling a bit off my game.  So, I have to apologize in advance if today’s particular blog post isn’t exactly up to par.  Anyway, on with the…

  • Eveleigh Restaurant from “Gossip Girl”

    Eveleigh Restaurant from “Gossip Girl”

    ‘ Fellow stalker Geoff, from the 90210Locations website, emailed me a few weeks back to let me know that he had tracked down the open-air-patio-ed restaurant where Serena van der Woodsen (aka Blake Lively) and Charlie Rhodes (aka Kaylee DeFer) ate lunch in the Season 4 episode of Gossip Girl titled “Beauty and the Feast”. …

    Màs Malo from “Scandal”

    ‘ Los Angeles is often ridiculed for having no history – or no appreciation of its history.  Demolition of the Ambassador Hotel aside, I don’t find that to be true.  There is history – well-preserved history – around pretty much ever corner.  You just have to know where to look.  Case in point – Màs…
