  • Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    ‘ One of the best things about being a member of the Screen Actors Guild is that each and every January all guild members receive, often without notice, DVDs of various movies that have been nominated for an upcoming SAG award.  These DVDs are doled out “for your consideration” so that members can watch them…

  • Hacienda Palomino – Michael Jackson’s Former Las Vegas House

    Hacienda Palomino – Michael Jackson’s Former Las Vegas House

    ‘ I am not really that into stalking celebrity homes (though I have quite a few of them on my site), the main reason being that typically little else besides a gate can be seen from the road.  There are some exceptions, though.  If there is a star I really like, or if I read…

  • Gossip Girl’s Constance Billard School for Girls and St. Jude’s School for Boys

    Gossip Girl’s Constance Billard School for Girls and St. Jude’s School for Boys

    ‘ Another Upper East Side location that I set out to stalk while in New York two weeks ago was the building used to portray Constance Billard School for Girls and St. Jude’s School for Boys on my new favorite show, Gossip Girl.  So, you can imagine my surprise when, while doing some location research…

  • Dean’s House from “License to Drive”

    Dean’s House from “License to Drive”

    ‘ For no particular reason and seemingly out of the blue, I got on a License to Drive kick a couple of weeks ago and was absolutely floored to come across a page on fellow stalker Geoff’s 90210Locations website that detailed almost all of the locales featured in the movie.  The only spot missing was…

  • Pico House from “My Sister Sam”

    Pico House from “My Sister Sam”

    ‘ The name of my blog is (obviously) meant in jest.  I always feel a pang of guilt over having chosen it, though, when I think about Rebecca Schaeffer, the young actress who was gunned down in her doorway by a deranged stalker at the tender age of 21 in 1989.  My grandma and I…

  • The Adamson House from “You”

    The Adamson House from “You”

    ‘ The second season of You had me feeling like an inadequate Angelino!  (Yes, even though I now live in Palm Springs, I still consider myself an L.A. denizen.)  In episode 6, “Farewell, My Bunny,” Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti) and her friends teach Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) about Los Angeles’ “seven totems,” which, once seen,…

  • Kate’s Apartment from “Picture Perfect”

    Kate’s Apartment from “Picture Perfect”

    ‘ I wish I could say I’ve never met a Jennifer Aniston movie I didn’t like, but that is not the case.  In fact, the opposite is more true – I’ve rarely met one I truly did enjoy.  Picture Perfect fits into the “didn’t like” category.  If you haven’t seen the film, this review Paul…

  • Pig N’ Whistle Restaurant

    Pig N’ Whistle Restaurant

    ‘ Last week, before seeing the Dirty Dancing stage show, my fiance and I grabbed a bite to eat at the historic Hollywood restaurant named the Pig N’”‘”‘ Whistle.  I had wanted to visit the celebrated Hollywood eatery ever since it appeared on a Fourth Season episode of The Bachelor back in 2003.  🙂  And, let me tell you, it was…

  • The Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever Special

    The Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever Special

    ‘ I know, I know – it was just last week that I promised not to let my blog go on Michael Jackson overload, but I’”‘”‘m sorry, this one was a must-post!  🙂  The other day, while reading one of the many Michael Jackson tribute magazines that have been published since the pop star’”‘”‘s death – and yes, I bought them all…

  • The Closer Duplex

    The Closer Duplex

    ‘ As I have mentioned before, I am a huge fan of TNT’”‘”‘s crime series The Closer.  As is my whole family, actually.  So, a few weeks ago when my mom challenged me to locate Brenda and Fritz’”‘”‘s duplex apartment building from the series, I accepted the challenge!  🙂  And it didn’”‘”‘t take me long to find it at…
