Pomona College’s Harwood Court – aka Eastland School from “The Facts of Life”
‘ Well over six months ago, my good friend Mikey, from the Mike the Fanboy website, asked if I would like to do some stalking with him of Harwood Court, the Pomona College dormitory which stood in for the fictional Eastland School, attended by Blair Warner (Lisa Whelchel), Dorothy ‘Tootie’ Ramsey (Kim Fields), Natalie Green…

The Casa Walsh Garage – A Distant Memory
‘ Like Mike, from MovieShotsLA said yesterday, it’s officially the end of an era. While the two of us were out doing some Pasadena area stalking on Sunday, we made our regular pilgrimage to the Walsh House from Beverly Hills, 90210 and saw a very sad sight, indeed. In fact, Mike was so out of…

Heather’s House from “New Nightmare”
‘ Way back in April, after stalking the talking road condition sign location from L.A. Story (which I blogged about here) and Malibu Hindu Temple from Beverly Hills Ninja (which I blogged about here), Mike, from MovieShotsLA, took me to the Tarzana-area house where Heather Langenkamp (who played herself) lived with her husband, Chase Porter…

“The Awakening” Sculpture
‘ I am not typically a big art person. This is mainly due to the fact that I love to be outside, especially when on vacation, so I don’t find myself frequenting museums often. While researching Washington, D.C.-area attractions prior to my trip to the East Coast last September, though, I came across some information…

Jason Priestley’s Former Apartment
‘ I haven’t been getting much sleep the past few nights and it’s all Jason Priestley’s fault. His new book, Jason Priestley: A Memoir, has me burning the midnight oil. The chapters are brief (most only a page or two) and begging to be perused. I find myself repeatedly thinking ‘I’ll just read one more,’…

Downey Studios from “Christmas with the Kranks”
‘ Back in early 2011, while doing some research on filming locations from Christmas with the Kranks, I just about fell off my chair when I discovered – thanks to Google Street View – that the backlot residential street at Downey Studios, which served as the main neighborhood in the 2004 comedy, was visible from…

The Hollywood Show!
‘ This past Saturday morning, I headed out to Burbank to attend the quarterly Hollywood Show, formerly known as the Hollywood Collectors Show. For those who have never heard of the event (like me, up until just recently), let me break it down for you. The Hollywood Show is a convention in which celebrities of…

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…

Jason Mesnick’s Bachelor Pad
‘ Monday night’”‘”‘s episode of The Bachelor was all that RealitySteve promised it would be – and more! The show played out pretty much EXACTLY as he said it would and I completely agree with him that the finale’”‘”‘s “shocking twist” was a set-up from the get-go. Something about Molly’”‘”‘s reaction during the After the Final Rose …

Viva Cantina from “The Girls Next Door”
‘ Each May, my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, and I have a standing lunch date to celebrate her birthday. We usually hit up Sizzler (‘cause we’re fancy like that!), but this year she requested to dine at Viva Cantina in Burbank – a place I had long wanted to stalk…
