  • Hilton Checkers Hotel from “The West Wing”

    Hilton Checkers Hotel from “The West Wing”

    ‘ One of the best parts about finally watching The West Wing for the first time is all of the L.A. locales I’ve been able to identify and stalk (you can read about a few of them here, here, and here).  One spot that I recognized on sight was Hilton Checkers Los Angeles, which masked…

  • Martin’s Tavern – Where JFK Proposed to Jackie

    Martin’s Tavern – Where JFK Proposed to Jackie

    ‘ I consider myself to be a pretty good stalker, but my good friend Lavonna puts me to shame.  Prior to my recent trip to Washington, D.C. with the Grim Cheaper, I painstakingly researched filming locations and area landmarks to check out while we were in town and compiled an extensive list of must-see places. …

  • The “Liar Liar” Towing Yard

    The “Liar Liar” Towing Yard

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I spent an entire day stalking in and around the Malibu area.  But before actually heading west to the ‘Bu, Mike made a little surprise pit stop in Alhambra so that the two of us could stalk the towing yard that appeared in fave comedy Liar…

  • Jeff Malene’s House From Girls Just Want To Have Fun

    Jeff Malene’s House From Girls Just Want To Have Fun

    ‘ Got a call from fellow stalker Chas last week, who told me that he had finally received his Girls Just Want To Have Fun  Netflix rental in the mail.  Chas was calling me up to ask if I wanted any other locations from the movie found – besides SJP’”‘”‘s ubiquitous apartment building, of course.  I believe my…

  • The “Dude, Where’s My Car?” Houses

    The “Dude, Where’s My Car?” Houses

    ‘ About six or seven years ago, my best friend Robin came to visit me from Switzerland for a few weeks and one night we found ourselves renting the 2000 cult comedy Dude, Where’s My Car? Being that the entire premise of the flick centers around two guys who lose their car, I honestly didn’t…

  • Tracey Ross from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    Tracey Ross from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ ‘Tis finally the season – the season for holiday-themed filming locations!  As is the case every year, because Christmas locales in the L.A. area are rather limited, I waited to start blogging about them until the end of December.  And I should mention here that my postings over the next two or three weeks…

  • Mercedes’ Friend’s House from “License to Drive”

    Mercedes’ Friend’s House from “License to Drive”

    ‘ The third – and last – License to Drive locale that I stalked while visiting L.A. a couple of weeks ago was the Colonial-style residence where Les Anderson (Corey Haim) dropped off his dream girl, Mercedes Lane (Heather Graham), in the 1988 classic.  I found the abode thanks to Geoff, from 90210Locations, who, as…

  • The “Clueless” Mall

    The “Clueless” Mall

    ‘ As evidenced by yesterday’s post, I have been on a major Clueless filming locations kick as of late.  One spot about which much conflicting information has been reported online is the mall (or malls) that appeared in the 1995 flick.  Some sites stipulate Westside Pavilion in Rancho Park was used, some surmise the Beverly…

  • Griffith Observatory

    Griffith Observatory

    ‘ A couple of months ago I dragged my parents and my then-fiancé/now husband out to Los Feliz to do some stalking of the Griffith Observatory in Griffith Park – a place which I had never before visited despite having lived in Los Angeles for over a decade.  I had actually wanted to stalk the…

  • The “You” Party House

    The “You” Party House

    ‘ The second season of You certainly did a stunning job of showcasing Los Angeles.  From the fabulously chic Anavrin grocery store to the striking Victorian rented by Candace Stone (Ambyr Childers), the city has never looked better onscreen!  One spot that majorly intrigued me was the pad where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) attempted to…
