    The “Father of the Bride” Grocery Store

    ‘ Due to my parents’ recent move and my dad’s recent hospital stay, I have sadly not had time to do much stalking as of late.  While in Palm Springs this past weekend my mom happened to ask me if I had some locations stockpiled (or should I say “stalkpiled”? ) for times such as…

  • My Latest Interview – with “The Nowman Show”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are back from our whirlwind trip to NYC, which was an absolute blast!  I have countless Big Apple locations to post in the coming weeks, as well as a slew of L.A. locales.  Today, though, I wanted to share my latest interview with The Nowman Show, which you can…

  • The “Grumpy Old Men” Houses

    The “Grumpy Old Men” Houses

    ‘ A few locations that my family and I stalked this past week while spending time in the North Star State were the homes which appeared in the 1993 comedy Grumpy Old Men.  I found these locations thanks to fellow stalker Lavonna, who, a few weeks before my trip out to the Midwest, gifted me…

  • Pig N’ Whistle Restaurant

    Pig N’ Whistle Restaurant

    ‘ Last week, before seeing the Dirty Dancing stage show, my fiance and I grabbed a bite to eat at the historic Hollywood restaurant named the Pig N’”‘”‘ Whistle.  I had wanted to visit the celebrated Hollywood eatery ever since it appeared on a Fourth Season episode of The Bachelor back in 2003.  🙂  And, let me tell you, it was…

  • The Hollywood Towne House Motel – Lumen’s Motel from “Dexter”

    The Hollywood Towne House Motel – Lumen’s Motel from “Dexter”

    ‘ This past weekend, the Grim Cheaper and I were doing some stalking in Hollywood when we happened upon the Hollywood Towne House Motel – aka the supposed Miami-area hotel where Lumen Ann Pierce (aka Julia Stiles) lived during this past season of fave series Dexter – which in my never-to-be humble opinion was the…

  • Dana’s House from “The Goldbergs”

    Dana’s House from “The Goldbergs”

    ‘ Brenda and Dylan.  Winnie and Kevin.  Rachel and Joey.  Adam and Dana.  All TV couples who didn’t wind up together, but who, in my never-to-be-humble opinion, really should have.  Though, since The Goldbergs is still on the air, I guess there’s still hope for the latter two.  I mean, any romance that starts out…

  • Sad Day for Stalkers!

    ‘ Sad news!! Tony just posted a comment on my Top Gun Bar post letting me know that a fire destroyed Kansas City Barbeque, aka the Top Gun Bar, this past Thursday afternoon. This has NOT been a good month for fires and filming locations – first Universal and now this. 🙁 At approximately 2:15PM…

  • Fosselman’s Ice Cream from “Phantasm”

    Fosselman’s Ice Cream from “Phantasm”

    ‘ When I was a little girl, my grandma would regularly take me out for an afterschool treat at our local ice cream parlor.  I cherished those trips, and now the memories of them, and was absolutely devastated when the parlor closed down about 15 years ago only to be replaced by a gift store. …

  • The Majestic Downtown from “The Holiday”

    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…

  • Hotel Shangri-La from “The Bachelor”

    Hotel Shangri-La from “The Bachelor”

    ‘ This past Sunday morning (which was particularly cloudy, as you can see above), the Grim Cheaper and I headed out to Santa Monica to run a couple of errands and while there we happened to walk by the Hotel Shangri-La – a historic Art Deco masterpiece that I have wanted to stalk ever since…
