  • The Warehouse Restaurant from “Anger Management”

    The Warehouse Restaurant from “Anger Management”

    ‘ While visiting L.A. last week, the Grim Cheaper and I stayed in Marina del Rey.  One late afternoon, during a waterfront stroll, we found ourselves passing by a unique eatery that had long been on my To-Stalk List.  Situated on the bustling Admiralty Way amongst upscale hotels and high-rise apartment buildings, the nautical-themed The…

  • George Valentin’s Duplex from “The Artist”

    George Valentin’s Duplex from “The Artist”

    ‘ As I mentioned way back in early 2010 in my post about Julia Child’s childhood home, one of the best parts about being in the Screen Actors Guild is the fact that all Guild members are sent several “For Your Consideration” DVDs just prior to the SAG Awards each year.  One of the DVDs…

  • The “Portal” Light Installation

    The “Portal” Light Installation

    ‘ Today’s locale can be filed in the hidden-gem-that-is-not-a-filming-location category, much like the Barthman Sidewalk Clock in New York.  (Well, it’”‘”‘s not really a filming location, but more on that in a bit.)  This one is located in Los Angeles, though, and is a definite must-see under-the-radar spot.  Looking back, I can’t remember how I…

  • Old Tony’s on the Pier from "The O.C."

    Old Tony’s on the Pier from "The O.C."

    ‘ The Baader-Meinhof phenomenon has been in full effect lately when it comes to Old Tony’s on the Pier, a Redondo Beach restaurant I stalked way back in January 2012 with my good friend Mike (he provided many of the images in this post), but have yet to blog about.  First, Alison Martino, founder of…

  • The Smoke House

    The Smoke House

    ‘ I am a little embarrassed to admit that my latest guilty pleasure is the reality show The Two Coreys on A&E. I love it! So when Corey Haim met with Scott Carlson, the other Corey’”‘”‘s manager, at the Smoke House restaurant in Burbank in one of the first episodes of the season, I of…

  • Brandi Glanville’s Former House

    Brandi Glanville’s Former House

    ‘ After watching the latest season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, I can say that Brandi Glanville is, without a doubt, my favorite cast member.  I absolutely ADORE her.  (I also love Lisa Vanderpump and Yolanda Foster.  As for the rest of the Housewives?  Well, to borrow one of my grandma’s catch-phrases, they…

  • Stalking Barry Manilow, Part II

    Stalking Barry Manilow, Part II

    ‘ Last time I was in Palm Springs I did a little stalking of Barry Manilow’”‘”‘s house, but thanks to Richard, who posted a comment on my previous Barry post telling me that Mr. Manilow’”‘”‘s home actually has TWO addresses, I was able to stalk the other side of his house this weekend while I…

  • Whitney Port’s Apartment from “The City”

    Whitney Port’s Apartment from “The City”

    ‘ As fate would have it, last year’s New York vacation ended just a few weeks prior to the series premiere of the MTV Hills spin-off entitled The City.  That, of course, meant that I had to wait almost an entire year to stalk any of the locations featured on the new show.  🙁  And,…

  • The “Step by Step” House

    The “Step by Step” House

    ‘ One location fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for quite some time now is the house where the Lambert Family lived in the 1990′”‘”‘s television sitcom Step by Step.  Because of the house’”‘”‘s Crafstman style architecture, Owen was pretty convinced that it was located somewhere in South Pasadena, a city which is known for its…

  • The “It’s A Wonderful Life” Train Station

    The “It’s A Wonderful Life” Train Station

    ‘ If there is anything I have learned over the past ten-plus years that I have lived in Southern California, it is that stalking tips often come from the most unlikely of places.  Take for instance this past weekend.  The Grim Cheaper’s father has long been a collector of model trains, so last Sunday afternoon…
