  • Dinah’s Family Restaurant from “Modern Family”

    Dinah’s Family Restaurant from “Modern Family”

    ‘ While I primarily love stalking filming locations of the residential variety, restaurants come in at a close second.  So when my friend Owen, of the When Write Is Blog, recently told me about Dinah’s Family Restaurant, a historic Westchester eatery that was featured in a Season 3 episode of Modern Family, I ran right…

  • Another Day Off

    ‘ I am taking the day off once again as I spent all day yesterday in the hospital with my dad.  He should be coming home today, though, so hopefully I will be able to write a new post for tomorrow.  Thanks to all of my fellow stalkers for their well wishes and kind words – they mean…

  • The Hartunian House from “Alpha Dog”

    The Hartunian House from “Alpha Dog”

    ‘ Another Palm-Springs-area locale that fellow stalker/location scout Scott Trimble, of the STS Locations website, helped me to find recently was the residence where Frankie Ballenbacher’s (aka Justin Timberlake’s) good friend/”Witness #11”, Susan Hartunian (aka Dominique Swain), lived with her utterly clueless and apathetic mother, Tiffany Hartunian (aka ER’s Alex Kingston), in the 2006 movie…

  • Richard Wright’s Rooftop Pool from “Sex and the City”

    Richard Wright’s Rooftop Pool from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ Another Sex and the City  locale that I stalked while in New York last month was the Greenwich Village building where Samantha’s Season 4 boyfriend, hotel magnate Richard Wright, lived on the series.  I found this location thanks to fave book Sex and the City: Kiss and Tell, and since fellow stalker Owen, my…

  • Casa Vega from “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”

    Casa Vega from “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”

    ‘ One of the things I most appreciate about Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is the lengths director Quentin Tarantino went to portray an authentic 1960s-era Los Angeles onscreen.  To that end, he featured several local historic restaurants from the time that are, thankfully, still around today, including Musso and Frank Grill, El Coyote,…

  • The Den from “Sex and the City”

    The Den from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ It goes without saying that I have a tendency to obsess on things (that fact should be apparent to even my site’s most casual visitors).  Recently, I found myself obsessing over two locations featured in the L.A.-based Season 3 episode of Sex and the City titled “Sex and Another City.”  The first locale I…

  • The Girl Next Door Houses

    The Girl Next Door Houses

    ‘ Located just a block away from the Beethoven house, which I blogged about yesterday, are the two main homes used in the 2004 movie The Girl Next Door.  Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me by this location on the same day that we stalked the Beethoven house a few months back.  And, even though I…

  • Valentino from “Pretty Woman”

    Valentino from “Pretty Woman”

    ‘ Pretty Woman is one of the most well-documented movies out there when it comes to locations.  Oddly though, despite the legions of websites and books with sections dedicated to its locales, I have yet to see identified the Rodeo Drive shop where Vivian Ward (Julia Roberts) and Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) spent an “obscene…

  • The Envelope Emmy Week “Geek TV” Event

    The Envelope Emmy Week “Geek TV” Event

    ‘ Another Envelope Emmy Week event that Mikey, from the Mike the Fanboy website, told me about was the “Geek TV Roundtable”, which featured a panel discussion with actors Jayma Mays (aka Emma Pillsbury from Glee), Johnny Galecki (aka Leonard Hofstadter from The Big Bang Theory), Michael C. Hall (aka Dexter Morgan from fave show…
