  • The “Pretty Woman” Opera House

    The “Pretty Woman” Opera House

    ‘ Today’s locale is one that I have been trying to track down for over a year and a half now – ever since discovering that pretty much every other location website out there had gotten it wrong.  I am talking about the exterior of the supposed San Francisco opera house featured in the 1990…

  • Madeline Garden Bistro & Venue from “Mad Men”

    Madeline Garden Bistro & Venue from “Mad Men”

    ‘ I have had many different stalking notebooks over the years.  My latest is a gorgeous white Moleskin that I picked up during my Switzerland vacation back in June 2013.  One locale that has been listed in it since I started using it almost four years ago (it’s one of the very first entries), but…

  • The White House Gates from “Scandal”

    The White House Gates from “Scandal”

    ‘ My life as of late seems to be absorbed by Scandal.  As I mentioned last week, the Grim Cheaper and I have recently become addicted to the ABC series.  Besides watching it during pretty much every free waking moment, I have also been furiously researching the show’s filming locations.  While set in Washington, D.C.,…

  • Happy Memorial Day!

    Happy Memorial Day!

    ‘ I would like to wish my fellow stalkers a very happy Memorial Day and offer a heartfelt thank you to all who have served to protect the freedoms of this great country of ours, especially those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. ‘

  • Another Long Day in the Hospital

    Another Long Day in the Hospital

    ‘ I am sorry to say that I don’t have a new blog to post for today as I spent about 12 hours in the hospital yesterday with my dad (his surgery lasted far longer than expected) and didn’t have time to write one.  🙁  But the good news is that my dad is doing…

  • The “Relativity” House

    The “Relativity” House

    ‘ Back in 1996, the Bedford Falls Company, the production company behind fave show My So-Called Life, debuted a new dramedy named Relativity.  I was hooked on the series from the get-go.  Sadly, it suffered the same fate as My So-Called Life and was cancelled after a solitary season.  Unlike MSCL, though, which prospered in…

  • The Georgian Hotel from “BH90210”

    The Georgian Hotel from “BH90210”

    ‘ While I was initially on the fence as to my feelings regarding BH90210, I have to say the meta-revival has really grown on me.  Though I did not particularly love the pilot, by episode 4, I was absolutely enthralled and am so saddened that Season 1 will be coming to a close this week. …

  • The Sand Acre Estate – Where Marilyn Monroe is Rumored to Have Vacationed

    The Sand Acre Estate – Where Marilyn Monroe is Rumored to Have Vacationed

    ‘ A few weeks ago, while doing research on Seward Johnson’s “Forever Marilyn” statue, which I blogged about yesterday, I came across a press release posted on the Visit Palm Springs website and just about passed out over the mention of a desert-area MM location that I had never before heard of!  The press release…

  • The Los Angeles Theatre Alley from “Coyote Ugly”

    The Los Angeles Theatre Alley from “Coyote Ugly”

    ‘ You won’t typically find me frequenting back alleys in downtown Los Angeles.  But there is one that I just can’t get enough of.  My good friend Mike, from MovieShotsLA, pointed it out to me many years ago during a daylong DTLA stalking venture.  While driving through the Theatre District, he pulled over near what…
