  • The Mama’s Family House

    The Mama’s Family House

    ‘ Last week I got a challenge to find the house used in the 1980′”‘”‘s television series Mama’”‘”‘s Family.  I had heard a while back that Mama’”‘”‘s house was in Pasadena, but had no idea of its exact location.   After doing a simple Google search, though, I quickly found the address.  Or so I thought.  🙂 …

  • You’re Going to Hollywood, Dog!

    You’re Going to Hollywood, Dog!

    ‘ Got a from Hilary last week to find the apartment building that the Top 12 American Idols just moved into. This challenge was actually a slam dunk as a good friend of mine used to live in the Idols building. So I just called him up and got the address (Thanks, DH!) The Idols…

  • Wonderland from “Scandal”

    Wonderland from “Scandal”

    ‘ I realize this is a complete about-face, but I am so over Scandal!  I know, I know – my love for the series was incredibly short-lived.  The Grim Cheaper and I just finished watching Season 4, though, and both felt that it went downhill fast.  The last few episodes proved so ridiculous that I…

  • Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”

    Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”

    ‘ One of my favorite movies growing up was the 1980 comedy Nine to Five.  I would watch it on an almost daily basis (no joke!) and practically had the thing memorized.  I can still belt out the theme song to this day, in fact.  (I am guessing the majority of my fellow stalkers can,…

    Happy Labor Day!

    ‘ I will be taking today off in honor of Labor Day (not Memorial Day as I originally posted – I always get those two holidays confused :)), but will be back tomorrow with a whole new location. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • Alvarado Street School from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    Alvarado Street School from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ For my final holiday post of 2013, I thought I would blog about a locale from my favorite television series of all time, Beverly Hills, 90210.  Last September, I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to Culver City to stalk Playa del Rey Elementary School, which masqueraded as Alvarado Street School, where Brenda Walsh (my…

  • The Dresden Restaurant

    The Dresden Restaurant

    ‘ A couple of months ago I was flipping through one of my favorite stalking tomes, Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors, when I came across a blurb written about the legendary Dresden Restaurant in Hollywood.  And while I had actually eaten at the Dresden once before upon first moving…

  • Mayo, Schmayo!

    Mayo, Schmayo!

    ‘ Because yesterday was quite possibly one of the worst days in my entire life, I was not able to write a post for today.  I had such high hopes for the Mayo Clinic finding a cure for my dad’”‘”‘s illness, but sadly it has become blindingly apparent that the facility is completely incompetent and inept.  In…

  • The Convenience Store from “Can’t Hardly Wait”

    The Convenience Store from “Can’t Hardly Wait”

    ‘ My buddy, fellow stalker Owen of the When Write Is Wrong blog, is a huge Jennifer Love Hewitt fan.  Like huge.  He is also a fan of filming locations and, over the years, has managed to track down the vast majority of locales featured in his fave JLH movie, 1998’s Can’t Hardly Wait.  One…

  • The Central Park Boathouse Cafe

    The Central Park Boathouse Cafe

    ‘ One of the locations that I was most excited about stalking while in New York last month was a little restaurant named the Central Park Boathouse Cafe, also known as the Loeb Boathouse.  And although I’ve stalked this location once before – and even blogged about it – because the restaurant is not open…
