  • Arthur Abbott’s House from “The Holiday”

    Arthur Abbott’s House from “The Holiday”

    ‘ Another location from the 2006 movie The Holiday that I set out to track down last week for my Christmas-themed stalking posts was the large Mediterranean-style abode where Arthur Abbott (aka The Misfits’ Eli Wallach) lived.  Thanks to the flick’s production notes, I knew that the property was located somewhere in Brentwood and that…

  • The “Beautiful Girls” Houses

    The “Beautiful Girls” Houses

    ‘ As I remarked last week, one of my very favorite films of all time is the 1996 flick Beautiful Girls.  But, being that no one that I’ve mentioned the movie to as of late has ever even heard of it, I’m guessing it was pretty much a sleeper hit, despite its all-star cast.  Nevertheless,…

  • Jonathan’s Apartment from “Mannequin”

    Jonathan’s Apartment from “Mannequin”

    ‘ I wanted to go to Philadelphia for one reason and one reason only – to stalk Mannequin locations.  The 1987 comedy is one of my all-time favorites.  I loved it as a kid and love it even more today.  It has pretty much everything I could ever want in a film.  A mannequin that…

  • The “Punky Brewster” Building

    The “Punky Brewster” Building

    ‘ Back in early July, a fellow stalker named Charles posted a comment on my Challenge Lindsay page asking me to track down the building where Punky Brewster (Soleil Moon Frye) lived with her adoptive father, curmudgeon Henry Warnimont (George Gaynes), in the 1980s television series Punky Brewster. Now this stalker absolutely LOVED herself some…

  • My Latest Interview

    My Latest Interview

    ‘ This week is going to be rather hectic for me – I am traveling to L.A. for a brief visit, buying a new car and my dad is having surgery – so I most likely will not be able to do any blogging.  I will be back next Monday, though, with a whole new…

  • Thorne Hall from “The Holiday”

    Thorne Hall from “The Holiday”

    ‘ If I had to pick a favorite movie character it would be Arthur Abbott (Eli Wallach) from The Holiday.  There’s nothing about him that I don’t adore – his kind heart, his wit, his charm, his championing of Iris Simpkins (Kate Winslet).  And there’s no scene that makes me cry more than the one…

  • Leslie Knope’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    Leslie Knope’s House from “Parks and Recreation”

    ‘ A few months ago, fellow stalker Brandon (the very same stalker who tracked down the Skyline Residence from Crazy, Stupid, Love., which I blogged about back in November) emailed me to ask for some help in locating the Craftsman-style abode where Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) lives on the television series Parks and Recreation.  And…

  • SPARCinLA from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    SPARCinLA from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are moving in a couple of days (we bought a house out here in the desert – our first house!) and while packing last week I informed him that as soon as we got settled we would be taking a trip to Los Angeles as I “have nothing to…

  • Karyn Kupcinet’s Former Apartment

    Karyn Kupcinet’s Former Apartment

    ‘ Back in June, while reading Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard’s fabulous book Killing Kennedy, I was reminded of an unsolved death tied to the former president that took place in November 1963 in West Hollywood – the murder of 22-year-old actress Karyn Kupcinet in her Monterey Village apartment on North Sweetzer Avenue. Figuring that…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I am cutting this week short blogging-wise so that I can begin my Thanksgiving celebrations early.  I am so excited for all that we have planned for the holiday, including a stay somewhere cold, and will be sharing some of my upcoming adventures on the blog soon.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers…
