  • Another Day Off!

    Another Day Off!

    ‘ Because I spent all day yesterday doing some location scouting with Mike, from MovieShotsLA – including an amazing visit to the WB Ranch!!!! – I was not able to write a new post for today.  But I promise to be back tomorrow with a whole new location.  So until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The Figueroa Hotel from “90210”

    The Figueroa Hotel from “90210”

    ‘ A couple of years ago, while perusing through an issue of AAA’s Westways Magazine, I spotted an article about Southern California’s nicest most reasonably –priced hotels and, because I was dating the Grim Cheaper at the time, I figured I’d best read through it.  Of the ten properties featured in the column, the Moroccan-themed…

  • Palindrome Healing Center from “Flaked”

    Palindrome Healing Center from “Flaked”

    ‘ Some images just stay with you.  When I came across these MLS photos of a Venice Beach home on Curbed Los Angeles back in 2008, I practically started drooling and the words “real estate porn” immediately came to mind.  The pictures of the dramatically unique Moroccan-inspired dwelling, especially the ones of the meandering pool,…

  • Pat’s Topanga Grill from “Medium”

    Pat’s Topanga Grill from “Medium”

    ‘ Way back in December, after stalking the Topanga Canyon house where Paula (Sissy Spacek) lived in the 2008 Yuletide comedy Four Christmases (which I blogged about here), the Grim Cheaper and I passed by Pat’s Topanga Grill and decided to pop in for some breakfast. Because the GC always likes to joke that businesses…

  • Griffith Park’s Pote Field from “Jerry Maguire”

    Griffith Park’s Pote Field from “Jerry Maguire”

    ‘ Another location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I stalked way back in early June (shortly before we stalked the legendary Perino’s restaurant, which I blogged about yesterday) was Pote Field in Griffith Park, which was featured in the closing scene of one of my favorite romantic comedies of all time – 1996’s Jerry Maguire. …

  • Henry Kyle’s Former House

    Henry Kyle’s Former House

    ‘ Many, many months back, my mom texted me to ask if I had ever stalked the Bel-Air mansion where Texas tycoon Henry Harrison Kyle was murdered on July 22nd, 1983.  Because the property had also once been the residence of filmdom’s first “It Girl,” Clara Bow, my mom thought it would fit in perfectly…

  • Rise N Grind from “Veep”

    Rise N Grind from “Veep”

    ‘ I have never been one for New Year’s resolutions.  That being said, in 2018 I am hoping to regularly exercise, be kinder (to myself and others), drink more water and less champagne, and cut down on my daily latte regimen.  The last one is going to be much easier said than done.  No matter…

  • The Three Clubs from “Swingers”

    The Three Clubs from “Swingers”

    ‘ Besides a great coffee shop, there’s pretty much nothing I love more than an unpretentious bar/restaurant that boasts a retro vibe (as evidenced here, here, here, here, here, and here).  Add in a filming location element and I am completely smitten!  One that had been on my To-Stalk List for what seemed like eons…

  • “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    “The Wedding Singer” Limo Test Parking Lot

    ‘ One location that fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for what seems like years now is the parking lot where Robbie (aka Adam Sandler) and Julia (aka Drew Barrymore) tested Sammy’s (aka Allen Covert’s) limo driving skills in fave movie The Wedding Singer.  And I think I can safely say that…

    My Latest Interview with BH9021Whoa

    ‘ I recently sat down to chat all things 90210 with LeeAnn from the fabulous BH9021Whoa website.   (That’s her header pictured above – yep, she photoshopped her face onto Shannen Doherty’s body.  A woman after my own heart, I swear!)  Be sure to head over to her site to check out the interview. P.S. The…
