  • Architect Frank Gehry’s House

    Architect Frank Gehry’s House

    ‘ One location that I stalked quite a while back, but have yet to blog about is the residence belonging to legendary 81-year old Pritzker Prize-winning architect Frank Gehry, a man who is perhaps best known for his contemporary designs of the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Downtown Los Angeles, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao,…

  • The “Lady Bird” House

    The “Lady Bird” House

    ‘ I know I am in the minority when I say I did not like Lady Bird.  Besides confusion over the name (up until I actually popped in the DVD and started watching, I thought the movie was a biopic about Lady Bird Johnson) and a storyline that seemed lacking, I found the main character,…

  • Casey’s Irish Pub

    Casey’s Irish Pub

    ‘ One location that I have been wanting to stalk for what seems like ages now is Casey’s Irish Pub (aka Casey’s Bar & Grill), a historic Downtown Los Angeles watering hole that has appeared in COUNTLESS movie and television productions throughout its more than thirty year history.  I first found out about the bar…

  • Charles W. Eliot Middle School from “The Mentalist”

    Charles W. Eliot Middle School from “The Mentalist”

    ‘ Located directly across the street from the Larry Crowne apartment building in Altadena, which I blogged about last Friday, is Charles W. Eliot (not Elliot) Middle School – a very unique and arresting structure that looms over the neighborhood thanks to its large fortress-like bell tower.  My veterinarian is located just up the street…

  • It’s A Wrap!

    It’s A Wrap!

    ‘ Got an email the other day from fellow stalker Heather who told me about a store in Burbank named It’”‘”‘s A Wrap that sells clothing, props, and memorabilia from recently wrapped movies and television shows!  Being that the store sounded right up my alley, I immediately ran out to stalk it!!  🙂  It’”‘”‘s A Wrap has been in…

  • Brenda Leigh Johnson’s House from “The Closer”

    Brenda Leigh Johnson’s House from “The Closer”

    ‘ I thought I’”‘”‘d take a little break from writing about my nuptials today as I figure there are more than a few stalkers out there who are not at all interested in reading about wedding planning, even when there is a filming location element tied in to it.  Anyway, a few days ago I was going through some old photographs on my…

  • The Culver City Hobbit Houses

    The Culver City Hobbit Houses

    ‘ I have a major affinity for unique architecture.  So when I came across this CurbedLA article about the Lawrence and Martha Joseph Residence and Apartments, a grouping of Storybook-style structures in Culver City colloquially known as the “Hobbit houses,” I just about foamed at the mouth.  The complex looks like something straight out of…

  • Palm Springs Weekend!

    Palm Springs Weekend!

    ‘ This past Friday morning the Grim Cheaper and I headed out to Palm Springs for a little three-day getaway and, while I did manage to sneak some stalking into the trip, I was unfortunately not able to write a blog post for today. But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new location,…

  • Farralone – Frank Sinatra’s Former House

    Farralone – Frank Sinatra’s Former House

    ‘ While doing research on the Chaplin Court apartment complex, which I blogged about last Thursday, I came across some information about an oft-filmed-at Chatsworth-area estate formerly owned by Old Blue Eyes himself, Frank Sinatra, that, for some inexplicable reason, I had somehow not previously known about.  The mansion, which in most circles is known…

  • The Bistro Garden

    The Bistro Garden

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while searching online for different filming locations from The Office, I came across some information about an area restaurant which not only appeared in The Office, but in countless other productions over the years, as well – the Bistro Garden in Studio City.  So, I, of course, dragged the…
