  • The Very First Starbucks Store

    The Very First Starbucks Store

    ‘ While this probably goes without saying, the location that I was most excited about stalking while vacationing in Seattle this past May was the very first Starbucks store at Pike Place Market.  As I’ve mentioned countless times in the past – and as anyone who knows me even slightly well can attest to –…

  • My Birthday Plans Go Up In Flames

    My Birthday Plans Go Up In Flames

    ‘ For my birthday, which is coming up in two weeks, I was planning on dragging my boyfriend on the ultimate stalking adventure – a day at Universal Studios Hollywood! The last time I was at Universal was about 20 years ago and I am just dying to go on the tram ride to see…

  • The “Young Sheldon” House

    The “Young Sheldon” House

    ‘ I don’t think I’ve ever hated a television character more than Samantha Ruland on Scandal (though Beverly Hills, 90210’s Kelly Taylor ranks a close second).  Played by Zoe Perry, Samantha represented pure evil – there was literally not a single redeeming thing about her.  It got to the point that even hearing her voice…

  • Barb’s Quickie Grill from “Pretty Woman”

    Barb’s Quickie Grill from “Pretty Woman”

    ‘ Another Pretty Woman location that I spent countless hours trying to track down recently was the tiny café where Vivian Ward (Julia Roberts) and Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) had dinner towards the end of the classic 1990 flick.  And while the name of the establishment – “Barb’s Quickie Grill” – and a street number…

  • Happy Labor Day

    Happy Labor Day

    ‘ I am taking the day off from blogging today to celebrate Labor Day with my family in Palm Springs, but I will be back tomorrow with a whole new post.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers are enjoying a fabulous three-day weekend! Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • Grub Restaurant from “The Hills”

    Grub Restaurant from “The Hills”

    ‘ While scanning through episodes of The Hills this past weekend looking for the scene that was filmed at Pinches Tacos in West Hollywood, which I blogged about yesterday, I just about fell off my chair when I spotted Grub Restaurant pop up in Season 5’s “Can’t Always Get What You Want”.  Amazingly, way back…

  • The “Crossroads” Gas Station

    The “Crossroads” Gas Station

    ‘ One  location that I was absolutely dying to stalk while visiting Palmdale last week was the supposed Texas-area gas station where Lucy Wagner (aka Miss Britney Spears) stole the keys to Ben’s (aka Anson Mount’s) Buick Skylark convertible in the 2002 movie Crossroads.  I had known from watching the flick’s DVD commentary with director Tamra…

  • LA Not So Confidential

    LA Not So Confidential

    ‘ For years my mom has been begging me to do some stalking of one of her favorite movies, LA Confidential. Ever since the movie came out back in 1997 she has been obsessed with finding the various houses used during filming, but none more so than David Strathiarn’”‘”‘s character’”‘”‘s beautiful, ultra modern hillside abode.…

  • The Los Angeles Filming Locations of “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”

    The Los Angeles Filming Locations of “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”

    ‘ Be sure to check out my latest Discover Los Angeles article about the L.A. locations featured in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.  I am especially excited about this post as – thanks to a lot of help from Michael Amundson, who worked on the movie, and my friend Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong…

  • Chateau LeMoine from “Southland”

    Chateau LeMoine from “Southland”

    ‘ A few months ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, posted some photographs on his site of Chateau LeMoine, an uh-ma-zing castle-like property that was featured in the Season 3 episode of Southland (his favorite television series, second only, of course, to Beverly Hills, 90210) titled “Cop or Not”.  And while I have never watched Southland, I…
