The “Punky Brewster” Grocery Store
‘ As I mentioned in my August 18th post about the buildings used in the opening credits of fave ‘80s television show Punky Brewster (which you can read here), one spot that remained a mystery was the grocery store where Punky Brewster (Soleil Moon Frye) offered to help patrons carry their bags in exchange for…

The Majestic Downtown from “The Holiday”
‘ The Holiday has definitely been on my brain as of late. I wrote about two of the houses used in the 2006 film for the December issue of Los Angeles magazine and recently got to tour Thorne Hall at Occidental College, the setting of one of its most poignant scenes. So I figured it…

The Marlin Club from “Bring It On”
‘ A few weeks ago, my parents, my fiance, and I went down to San Diego for a few days for a short little summer vacay.

Kirsten Dunst’s Bring It On House
‘ Well, as Vanessa Williams once sang, I definitely “saved the best for last” regarding my Bring It On posts this week.

The only spot missing was…

Amanda’s House from “The Holiday”

The Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway Tour
‘ My knowledge of Elvis Presley is basically limited to the fact that he was a singer (duh!), his 1957 drafting into the army served as the inspiration for the play and movie Bye Bye Birdie, he called a spectacular Tennessee mansion named Graceland home (the manse is the setting of one of my favorite…

Oliver’s House from “A Lot Like Love”
‘ A Lot Like Love is a movie I can’t not watch. Even though I’ve seen it at least a dozen times and own the DVD, if I happen to catch it on TV, need to scan through it for a post, or it pops up in my Netflix recommendations, I’m pretty much viewing it…

Donna Martin’s House from the B.Y.O.B. Episode of “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ One location that I have been wanting to stalk for just about as long as I can remember now is the mansion where Donna Martin (aka Tori Spelling) lived in the Season 1 episode of fave show Beverly Hills, 90210 titled “B.Y.O.B”. For whatever reason, though, I could just NOT seem to track the…
