Guasti Villa from "Veep"
‘ It’s no secret how much I hate incorrect filming location information. But sometimes errant info can lead to good things. Case in point – back in 2012, an article was published about the Los Angeles locales featured in The Artist. One of the sites detailed was Guasti Villa, aka Busby Berkeley’s former Jefferson Park…

Jack Ryan’s House from “Clear and Present Danger”
‘ The Grim Cheaper was anxiously awaiting last Friday’s premiere of the new Amazon series Jack Ryan. There was practically a countdown going on in our house.

Ed and Tori’s Coffee Shop Meet-Up from “Big Little Lies”
‘ If the news reports currently lighting up the internet are to be believed, the drama that took place behind the scenes of Big Little Lies’ latest season is far headier than that which unfolded onscreen!

The LAPD/FBI Headquarters from “The Fast and the Furious”
‘ One location that I am asked about constantly is the mid-century modern-style, circular-shaped home that served as the LAPD/FBI undercover headquarters in the 2001 flick The Fast and the Furious.

The Well from the Manhattan Well Murder of 1799
‘ Oh, do I love a good ghost story! Back in 2014, my friend Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, sent me an article about a well in New York that was the site of an infamous 1799 murder. The seven-foot by five-foot well, situated in the basement of a SoHo building that…

Chris’ Apartment from “Parks and Recreation”
‘ I realize that I am on serious Parks and Recreation overload here, but today’s location is one that I could not not blog about being that I am absolutely OBSESSED with it! What is the location you ask? The supposed Indianapolis-area ultra-modern loft that Chris Traeger (Rob Lowe) owns on the series. I became…

Attending a Taping of Extra . . .
‘ I spent all of yesterday morning at The Grove watching an episode of Extra being filmed that featured special guest Bachelorette Emily Maynard, whom I LOVE LOVE LOVE. (She is so freaking cute, it is almost unbelievable!) Then, when I finally did get home, the Grim Cheaper hooked me up with a new watermark…

The Obsessed House
‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up and said, “Where is that big pink house in Altadena that you stalked a while back?” Well, I had absolutely no idea what on earth he was talking about! For some reason, a “big pink house in Altadena” just wasn’”‘”‘t ringing any bells with me. …
