    The House Where Judy Lewis, Loretta Young and Clark Gable’s Daughter, Was Born

    ‘ Today’s locale is easily one of the coolest I have visited in my 13-plus years of living in Southern California, which is ironic being that it is comprised of mostly vacant land.  I am talking about the one-time location of the house where Judy Lewis, the secret love child of screen siren Loretta Young…

  • The 90210 Pilot Church

    The 90210 Pilot Church

    ‘ A few days ago I sent Mike, from MovieShotsLA, a screen capture of the church featured in the pilot episode of Beverly Hills, 90210. I had a hunch he might know where it was located – and, sure enough, he did! He immediately called me and said “That’”‘”‘s the Spiderman church!” as it was…

  • Stuyvesant Square Park from “Sex and the City”

    Stuyvesant Square Park from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ At the risk of this blog becoming solely Sex and the City-based, here I am yet again with yet another locale from the hit HBO series.  For those of you non-SATC fans out there, don’t worry, I will be chronicling NYC sites from other productions soon.  I will also be interspersing New York spots…

  • The All American Burger from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    The All American Burger from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    ‘ I was devastated to learn back in early 2010, thanks to fellow stalker Amanda, that The All American Burger on Sunset Boulevard, which masqueraded as Clown Dog restaurant in 1991’s Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, was being turned into a Chipotle Mexican Grill.  I never expected that the historic eatery was going to…

  • The “Last Man Standing” House

    The “Last Man Standing” House

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I watch a lot of TV.  Like a lot.  So I am always surprised when I receive an email from a reader asking about a location from a show I am not familiar with.  Such was the case in January, when fellow stalker Marjorie reached out to ask for my…

    The “Father of the Bride” Grocery Store

    ‘ Due to my parents’ recent move and my dad’s recent hospital stay, I have sadly not had time to do much stalking as of late.  While in Palm Springs this past weekend my mom happened to ask me if I had some locations stockpiled (or should I say “stalkpiled”? ) for times such as…

  • Henry’s Tacos from “People Like Us”

    Henry’s Tacos from “People Like Us”

    ‘ Last weekend, the Grim Cheaper and I finally decided to check out People Like Us.  And while I can’t say that I loved it (I am not big on depressing movies), it was an enjoyable watch and Chris Pine was, as always, oh-so-yummy.  And the flick was filmed in its entirety in Los Angeles,…

  • The Belasco Theatre

    The Belasco Theatre

    ‘ During my three day stint as an extra in the Britney Spears movie Crossroads, I happened to make friends with a few of the crew members.  The entire cast and crew of the movie was EXTREMELY nice and, as tends to happen on long shoots, I got to know the people I was working…
