  • The Never Been Kissed House

    The Never Been Kissed House

    ‘ Last weekend, thanks to fellow stalker Chas, I was able to stalk a location I’”‘”‘ve been on the lookout for for quite some time – Drew Barrymore’”‘”‘s childhood home from fave romantic comedy Never Been Kissed.   Chas is quite the master stalker, so last week I enlisted his help in finding this location and, lo and…

    Hanging out at Vincent Chase’s!

    ‘ This weekend, while doing some cyber-stalking, I found the address of Vincent Chase’”‘”‘s house from the HBO show Entourage, which is quickly turning into me and my boyfriend’”‘”‘s new fave show. So, on Saturday, I dragged my boyfriend to Beverly Hills to stalk the house that was used in the first two seasons of…

  • Amanda Peet’s Apartment Building from “A Lot Like Love”

    Amanda Peet’s Apartment Building from “A Lot Like Love”

    ‘ One of my favorite romantic comedies of all time is A Lot Like Love starring Amanda Peet and Ashton Kutcher – and while I was watching it I absolutely fell in love with the building used as Amanda Peet’”‘”‘s apartment. But as hard as I tried, I couldn’”‘”‘t seem to find this location by…

  • Kirk Douglas’ Former Palm Springs House

    Kirk Douglas’ Former Palm Springs House

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are finally home from a blissful two weeks in Switzerland. It was so hard to leave my best friend and his amazing family (pictured above) and the beauty of their country – especially being that when we returned to Palm Springs, temperatures were around 122 degrees! I will be…

  • The Otto Kahn and James Burden Mansions from “A Perfect Murder”

    The Otto Kahn and James Burden Mansions from “A Perfect Murder”

    ‘ For someone who is so well-versed in all things movie-related, I know very little about Old Hollywood – a fact my mom often admonishes me for.  Case in point – though A Perfect Murder has long been a favorite thriller, I have never seen Dial M for Murder, the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock masterpiece from…

  • The Whisky a Go Go

    The Whisky a Go Go

    ‘ I’ve never really been into music.  As I have mentioned before, if it’s not sung by Michael Bublé, Britney Spears or Michael Jackson, or was not a top ‘80s hit, chances are I haven’t heard it.  But my good friend Kim from Kentucky is a huge music buff, so when she and our good…

  • Bowfinger International Pictures from “Bowfinger”

    Bowfinger International Pictures from “Bowfinger”

    ‘ I am a sucker for any movie about Los Angeles.  Coincidentally (or perhaps no so coincidentally), Steve Martin has written and starred in two of my favorites – L.A. Story and Bowfinger.  Two completely different takes on life in LaLaLand, but both equally valid and poignant.  Because I originally moved to Southern California to…

  • The Los Angeles Police Administration Building from “The Closer”

    The Los Angeles Police Administration Building from “The Closer”

    ‘ One location that I had long been desperate to stalk was the real life Los Angeles Police Administration Building – or the Los Angeles Police Department Headquarters, as it is also known – in downtown Los Angeles, which played itself each week on fave show The Closer.  So in honor of the series’ recently-aired…

  • Echo Park

    Echo Park

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since June 2012, when I wrote my post about MacArthur Park from New Girl (which you can read here), was the similar-looking Echo Park in L.A.’s Echo Park neighborhood.  Sadly though, my efforts were thwarted for over a year due to an extensive restoration project…

  • "Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli"

    "Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli"

    ‘ My title might be a bit in poor taste, but it seems Robert Blake followed just that advice on a fateful day back in May 2001 after dining at Vitello’”‘”‘s Restaurant in Studio City. Although a jury found him not guilty, it is pretty widely assumed that Blake murdered his wife Bonnie Lee Bakley…
