  • William McKinley High School from “Glee”

    William McKinley High School from “Glee”

    ‘ My Hollywood obsession as of late is the new Fox musical dramedy Glee.  Actually, stating that I am obsessed with the series is a rather gross understatement.  To say it’s more of an all-out, withdrawal-symptom inducing addiction would be closer to the truth.  In fact, I don’t think I’ve been this enamored of a…

  • The Brothers and Sisters House

    The Brothers and Sisters House

    ‘ Got a last week from who wanted me to do some stalking of the house used in the ABC series . I’”‘”‘d actually gotten this challenge once before, but since I had never really watched the show, I hadn’”‘”‘t put much effort into stalking it. But then I saw the house on and he…

  • Hanging Out at the Rehearsals for the Golden Globe Awards

    Hanging Out at the Rehearsals for the Golden Globe Awards

    ‘ Two Saturdays ago, as the Grim Cheaper and I were heading out to Santa Monica to run some errands, I got a text message from fellow stalker Lavonna reminding me that the Golden Globe Awards were being held the following evening at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills.  Lavonna suggested that I stop…

  • Villa de Leon

    Villa de Leon

    ‘ Back in September, while doing research on the Glendale Amtrak Station from Bulletproof (which I blogged about here), I came across a fabulous post on the Paradise Leased website about Villa de Leon – a huge Pacific Palisades-area estate that was also designed by architect Kenneth MacDonald Jr.  I quickly became entranced by the…

  • The Benjamin N. Duke House from “The First Wives Club”

    The Benjamin N. Duke House from “The First Wives Club”

    ‘ They say revenge is a dish best served cold.  Well, I think revenge movies are a dish best served with a side of comedy.  The Other Woman?  9 to 5?  The Sting?  The First Wives Club?  All perfection!  The latter is one of my ultimate favorites, so when I saw the address of the…

  • What Not To Shear – Nick Arrojo’s Studio in New York

    What Not To Shear – Nick Arrojo’s Studio in New York

    ‘ I guess I come by my obsessions naturally – the apple does not fall too far from the tree as they say, because my mom has been completely obsessed with the show What Not To Wear for years now. She is especially obsessed with Nick Arrojo, the hairstylist from the TLC makeover show. She…

  • Papagayos Mexican Restaurant & Cantina from "Vanderpump Rules"

    Papagayos Mexican Restaurant & Cantina from "Vanderpump Rules"

    ‘ It has been hot in Palm Springs lately.  Granted, it is always hot here, but the past few months have been unseasonably sweltering.  Two weeks ago, my parents, the Grim Cheaper and I decided to chill out a bit by heading to Lake Arrowhead for a short getaway.  Just prior to our trip, the…

  • The “Larry Crowne” Apartment Building

    The “Larry Crowne” Apartment Building

    ‘ Two additional Larry Crowne filming locations that I stalked this past weekend were Talia’s, the vintage clothing store owned by Talia Francesco (aka the adorable Gugu Mbatha-Raw), and the apartment building where Larry Crowne (aka Tom Hanks) lived at the very end of the flick, both of which are housed inside of the same…

  • The Prince Restaurant from “New Girl”

    The Prince Restaurant from “New Girl”

    ‘ One location that has been at the top of my To-Stalk list for what seems like ages now is The Prince – a historic and oft-filmed-at 1920s-era eatery located in Koreatown.  And while I had never actually dined there, I had long been familiar with the place’s interior thanks to its many appearances onscreen. …

  • Blissful Drip Café from “Big Little Lies”

    Blissful Drip Café from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ Big Little Lies producers sure like their fake coffee shops!  In the hit HBO series’ first season, Madeline Martha Mackenzie (Reese Witherspoon), Celeste Wright (Nicole Kidman) and Jane Chapman (Shailene Woodley) regularly hung out at Blue Blues, a supposed Old Fisherman’s Wharf restaurant that, as I mentioned here and here, was actually a studio-built…
