  • The “Empty Nest” House

    The “Empty Nest” House

    ‘ Today’s post is a looooooong-time coming, friends! Easily the location I get asked to track down most often is the supposed Miami, Florida-area house where Dr. Harry Weston (Richard Mulligan) lived on the television series Empty Nest. I have searched for the contemporary two-story residence off-and-on over the years, but never had any luck. …

  • Hollywood Diner from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    Hollywood Diner from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    ‘ Another day, another diner from a Meg Ryan movie!  Unlike the Port Café, the Wilmington, California eatery that portrayed East Coast establishments in both When Harry Met Sally . . . and A Few Good Men, today’s locale can actually be found close to the Atlantic – though its name would have you believe…

  • The “Mommie Dearest” House

    The “Mommie Dearest” House

    ‘ Before I get started, I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a VERY happy Halloween!  And while I will, of course, be posting pics of me and the Grim Cheaper in costume, because I always write my blogs at least one day ahead of time, I will not be able to…

  • My Favorite Pasadena Places – Part I

    My Favorite Pasadena Places – Part I

    ‘ While the Grim Cheaper and I are absolutely loving our new apartment and desert locale, I am, of course, feeling quite nostalgic about Pasadena, the fabulous city that I called home for over thirteen years. There are so many things that I am going to miss about the place – even my former building’s…

  • The Harper House from “Scream 3”

    The Harper House from “Scream 3”

    ‘ Last Thursday afternoon, before grabbing lunch at Pinches Tacos from The Hills which I blogged about on Tuesday, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me by a famous apartment complex in West Hollywood named the Harper House.  Because the Spanish Baroque-style building was featured in Scream 3 (as well as countless other productions), Mike thought that…

  • Disneyland!

    Disneyland!

    ‘ This stalker had a pretty amazing, but exhausting weekend (which included a fabulous trip to Disneyland – as well as a special preview of Cars Land – with my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog) and I was unfortunately not able to get a blog done for today.  But I will…

  • Michelle’s Downhill Derby from “Full House”

    Michelle’s Downhill Derby from “Full House”

    ‘ There’s nothing like remnants of a film shoot remaining behind years after the fact to set my heart aflutter.  Last June, a fellow stalker named Chris kindly emailed me a lengthy and comprehensive list of Full House locations he had tracked down, one of which was the Griffith Park road where the Downhill Derby…

  • Robert Pastorelli’s Former House

    Robert Pastorelli’s Former House

    ‘ Growing up, I absolutely loved Murphy Brown. This was largely due to the antics of zany housepainter/nanny Eldin Bernecky, played by actor Robert Pastorelli.  I adored Eldin so much in fact that when Pastorelli left the show in 1994, I stopped watching.  I was heartbroken to learn of his death a decade later and…

  • Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”

    Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”

    ‘ Today’s locale is another one of those facepalm spots.  For ages, I had been trying to track down the interior of the diner where Mitch (Owen Wilson) and the boys discussed saving their fraternity in the 2003 comedy Old School.  While I had long known that Montrose Bakery & Café (which, sadly, Yelp is…

  • The American Cement Building from “Scream 3”

    The American Cement Building from “Scream 3”

    ‘ While I am admittedly not a fan of MacArthur Park, there is a property situated on the border of it that I would absolutely LOVE to live in – The American Cement Building.  Mike from, MovieShotsLA, pointed out the dramatically stunning structure many moons ago during one of our very first stalks together and…
