    Nick’s Cafe from “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”

    ‘ It is not everyday that a one-minute clip gets me hooked on an entire television series, but that is exactly what happened with Brooklyn Nine-Nine.  A few months back, my friend Kate texted me a hilarious highlight from a Season 5 episode in which Detective Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) leads a group of criminals…

  • Happy Labor Day!

    Happy Labor Day!

    ‘ I will be taking today off to celebrate Labor Day with my family.  And because I spent this past weekend helping my parents move, I most likely won’t have a new post to publish for tomorrow either.  🙁  But I promise to be back on Wednesday with a whole new blog, so stay tuned! …

    The 3rd Annual “Get Lucky for Lupus” Celebrity Poker Tournament

    ‘ Last Wednesday evening, my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, invited me to do a little stalking of the 3rd Annual “Get Lucky for Lupus” Celebrity Poker Tournament, which benefited Lupus LA, the West Coast division of the S.L.E. Lupus Foundation.  Well, once I head the word “lupus”, I knew that…

    The “Sex and the City” Starbucks

    ‘ One of the best things about starting this blog is the people it has put me in contact with – a myriad of fabulous individuals who share my unique affection for filming locations.  One such fellow stalker, a New Yorker named Gary, has gifted me with countless Big Apple locales since we first started…

  • Anavrin from “You”

    Anavrin from “You”

    ‘ I loved Season 1 of You, but Season 2 was even more gripping, engrossing and enjoyable!  I think a large part of that had to do with Anavrin (pronounced “uh-nah-vrin”), the impossibly idyllic grocery store where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) landed a job in episode 1, “A Fresh Start,” and worked throughout.  The charming…

  • The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “She Knows”

    The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “She Knows”

    ‘ The fourth episode of Big Little Lies’ second season is pretty much when the show jumped the shark for me.  Though there were some captivating moments – a pumpkin carving party, a disco soiree and that slap! – the majority of “She Knows” was just meh.  Nevertheless, I proudly present to you its locations! …

  • Marilyn Merlot

    Marilyn Merlot

    ‘ I am still very much in the throws of my Marilyn Monroe obsession, and it is definitely true what they say – the more you think about something, the more you attract that thing to you. My father happened to be going through his wine collection last week and discovered a bottle of “Marilyn…

  • The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco

    The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco

    ‘ Last Sunday morning, after checking out of the spectacular San Francisco loft where my bachelorette party was held, my friend Nat and I headed over to the historic former Presidio Army Base to stalk the recently-opened Walt Disney Family Museum.  Knowing what a Disney freak I am, Nat figured that the museum would be…

    Ali’s Trailer Park from “Burlesque”

    ‘ While the Grim Cheaper and I were stalking in Downtown Piru this past Saturday, the super-nice owner of Poncho’s Place, the restaurant from True Blood that I blogged about on Tuesday, clued me into the fact that the supposed rural, Iowa-area trailer park where Ali (aka Christina Aguilera) lived in the beginning of Burlesque…
