    Offshore – Liam’s Bar from “90210”

    ‘ One of the many locations that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I stalked last week while hanging out in the Redondo Beach area – and the one that I was most excited about – was Offshore, the bar owned by Liam Court (cutie Matt Lanter – sigh!) on fave show 90210.  I had been absolutely…

    Happy Veterans Day!

    ‘ I will be taking today off in honor of Veterans Day, but will be back tomorrow with a whole new post!  A sincere thank you to all of the men and women who have fought for our country over the years, including my dad, grandpa, father-in-law, and brother-in-law. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • 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…

  • The “License to Drive” Hospital

    The “License to Drive” Hospital

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, the Grim Cheaper and I headed to L.A. for a brief visit and just happened to book a hotel on the west side of town for our stay.  The location turned out to be quite fortuitous, too, as it allowed me to stalk a few nearby spots that had…

  • Downey Studios from “Christmas with the Kranks”

    Downey Studios from “Christmas with the Kranks”

    ‘ Back in early 2011, while doing some research on filming locations from Christmas with the Kranks, I just about fell off my chair when I discovered – thanks to Google Street View – that the backlot residential street at Downey Studios, which served as the main neighborhood in the 2004 comedy, was visible from…

  • Bolthouse Productions – Where Heidi "Works"

    Bolthouse Productions – Where Heidi "Works"

    ‘ On The Hills, Heidi supposedly works at the event planning company Bolthouse Productions. I say “supposedly” not because I doubt that she actually works there, but because I doubt that she actually does any work. It seems the only two things Heidi ever does while at “work” are gossip with various co-workers about her…

  • The “Pretty Woman” Party House

    The “Pretty Woman” Party House

    ‘ Over the past few weeks, fellow stalker Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I have been on an extensive hunt for several unfound locations from the 1990 classic romantic comedy Pretty Woman. And the locale that I was most interested in tracking down, you ask?  Why, the huge, modern-style abode where Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) attended…

  • The Grill on the Alley from “The Holiday”

    The Grill on the Alley from “The Holiday”

    ‘ This past weekend, while wandering through my local Target with the Grim Cheaper, I happened to spot a DVD of fave movie The Holiday on sale for $3.99!  When I saw that the special features included a commentary with director Nancy Meyers and a making-of featurette, I just about flipped my lid and immediately…

  • Meet Me At 3rd and Fairfax!

    Meet Me At 3rd and Fairfax!

    ‘ So the other night, while my mom and I were walking through the Farmers Market after dinner, I told her to keep her eyes peeled for celebs.  “Here???” my mom asked me in disbelief pointing to the numerous outdoor tables and metal folding chairs.  “Yes!”, I told her.  “No, here????” she asked me again.  LOL  She could not…

    My Guide to L.A. – See

    ‘ Today marks the end of my Guide to L.A. posts.  I hope you had as much fun reading the series as I did putting it together.  As I mentioned in yesterday’s article, to make things easier on myself I broke up my Things to Do recommendations into two categories, “Play” and “See,” though some…
