  • Café Figaro from “Jerry Maguire”

    Café Figaro from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ Today’s post is a long time in the making.  Off and on for years now I have been trying to track down the restaurant where Jerry Maguire (Tom Cruise) got fired in the 1996 romcom of the same name.  I decided to actively revisit the search a couple of weeks ago and, this time,…

  • Cindy’s Restaurant from “Surviving Christmas”

    Cindy’s Restaurant from “Surviving Christmas”

    ‘ I have made no secret of the fact that I majorly ration Christmas locations from year to year.  The sad truth is that few holiday flicks are lensed in the L.A. area (the city’s constant sunshine and lack of snow doesn’t exactly scream “Noel!”), which translates to a very minimal amount of holiday locales. …

  • Paul Pfeiffer’s House(s) from “The Wonder Years”

    Paul Pfeiffer’s House(s) from “The Wonder Years”

  • The Three Clubs from “Swingers”

    The Three Clubs from “Swingers”

    ‘ Besides a great coffee shop, there’s pretty much nothing I love more than an unpretentious bar/restaurant that boasts a retro vibe (as evidenced here, here, here, here, here, and here).  Add in a filming location element and I am completely smitten!  One that had been on my To-Stalk List for what seemed like eons…

  • “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    ‘ One location that fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for what seems like years now is the parking lot where Robbie (aka Adam Sandler) and Julia (aka Drew Barrymore) tested Sammy’s (aka Allen Covert’s) limo driving skills in fave movie The Wedding Singer.  And I think I can safely say that…

  • The Mystery of the “Melissa & Joey” House

    The Mystery of the “Melissa & Joey” House

    ‘ In February, I received a challenge from a fellow stalker named Jill who wanted to know about the home belonging to Melissa Burke (Melissa Joan Hart) on the ABC Family sitcom Melissa & Joey.  The residence looked familiar to her and she was fairly certain that it had been used previously in another series. …

  • The Empire Hotel from “Gossip Girl”

    The Empire Hotel from “Gossip Girl”

    ‘ My friend Mikey, from the Mike the Fanboy website, always teases me for being a huge fan of “Hollywood randoms,” i.e. stars he has never heard of.  One of my favorites of the so-called randoms is Ed Westwick, who played Chuck Bass on Gossip Girl.  Out of all the male TV characters I’ve ever…

  • 7th Street/Metro Center Station from “Cruel Intentions”

    7th Street/Metro Center Station from “Cruel Intentions”

    ‘ We all have those movie scenes – the ones so dramatic, so full of romance or even so disturbing (like this, for example) that, for better or worse, they remain ingrained in our memories.  Two of my favorites happen to be from the same film and, oddly, it’s a film I don’t even like…

  • Vasquez Rocks County Park

    Vasquez Rocks County Park

    ‘ One location that I have been dying to stalk for what seems like ages now is Vasquez Rocks County Park in Agua Dulce, California.  I first read about the park in fave stalking book Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors about 7 months ago and absolutely begged my fiancé…
