The Disneyland Locations from “Saving Mr. Banks”
‘ In February (on what turned out to be an exorbitantly crowded day), the Grim Cheaper and I visited The Happiest Place on Earth with Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, and her husband, Keith Coogan. Since I had just recently watched – and fallen in love with – Saving Mr. Banks, I…

Scott Baio is 46 . . . and Stalked!
‘ All this stalking must be rubbing off on my boyfriend, because he called me Tuesday night, all excited, saying, “I found a street sign and an address in the background of Scott Baio is 46 . . . and Pregnant – we can go stalk his house this weekend!” LOL I think my boyfriend…

L.A. Vacay
‘ I am heading to L.A. today and staying through the weekend – my favorite weekend of the year. Yep, it’s that time again – time for the Academy Awards. I am SO excited and am not even going to let the torrential rain that is supposed to be falling the entire time we are…

Frank The Tank!
‘ I have been a student at The Groundlings School for about two years now. The Groundlings is an exceptional improv school that was started in 1972 and is practically a breeding ground for Saturday Night Live actors. Some of the comedic greats who got their start at the Groundlings include Kathy Griffin, Lisa Kudrow,…

On Location With The Mentalist!
‘ Yesterday morning while doing some Downtown Los Angeles stalking, I happened to stumble upon a large film crew outside of Union Station. I, of course, asked one of the background actors what was being filmed and almost fell over when she told me it was my new favorite show, The Mentalist!!!! I asked if Simon Baker was on set and she laughed and said “Everyone’”‘”‘s been…

Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle’s Former West Adams Houses
‘ I just finished reading a fabulous book about one of Hollywood’s first and biggest controversies titled Room 1219: The Life of Fatty Arbuckle, the Mysterious Death of Virginia Rappe, and the Scandal That Changed Hollywood by Greg Merritt. Prior to reading the tome, I knew little about actor/comedian Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle, but had always…

Another . . . Day . . . Off!
‘ Because I spent all day yesterday with fellow stalkers Lavonna, Beth, Melissa, Kim, and Sandy, who were in town from Cincinnati for a little stalking vacay, and Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, I did not have time to write a new post for today. But I do promise to be back…

18th Street Coffee House from “Modern Family”
‘ As I have said countless times before on this blog, there’s pretty much nothing I love more than a filming location that serves coffee. So I thought stalking the 18th Street Coffee House in Santa Monica, which was featured in the Season 6 episode of Modern Family titled “Rash Decisions,” would be a pleasant…

Patterson’s Appliances from “That Thing You Do!”
‘ After stalking the downtown Orange spot where the That Thing You Do! mailbox scene was filmed (which I blogged about yesterday), I dragged the Grim Cheaper just a few feet south to stalk the storefront that was used as Patterson’s Appliances, drummer Guy Patterson’s (Tom Everett Scott) family’s shop, in the 1996 flick. Thank…

JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes
‘ Considering how much I love history, I know shockingly little about former President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline. So I was thrilled when the Grim Cheaper gifted me with Jackie, Janet & Lee: The Secret Lives of Janet Auchincloss and Her Daughters Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill last Christmas. The 2018…
