  • The “Sleepless in Seattle” Houseboat

    The “Sleepless in Seattle” Houseboat

    ‘ Another Seattle area location that my good friend and fellow stalker Kerry stalked for me a few weeks back was the houseboat where Sam Baldwin (aka Tom Hanks) and his son Jonah (aka Ross Malinger) lived in one of my favorite romantic comedies of all time, 1993’s Sleepless in Seattle.   I just re-watched Sleepless…

  • The Girls United Group Home from “The Fosters”

    The Girls United Group Home from “The Fosters”

    ‘ In April, a fellow stalker named Ashley asked for some help in locating the Girls United group home from both the television show The Fosters and its web series spin-off, The Fosters: Girls United.  I had never heard of either production before, but through a bit of Googling came across this Wikia article about…

  • The Millennium Biltmore Hotel’s South Galleria from “The West Wing”

    The Millennium Biltmore Hotel’s South Galleria from “The West Wing”

    ‘ The Millennium Biltmore Los Angeles is a rare bird when it comes to filming locations in that virtually every square inch of it has appeared onscreen – and I’m talking in multiple major productions!  This factoid fascinates me and I thought it would be fun to cover in an in-depth article, so a few…

    Ferndell Nature Center

    ‘ It’s that time again, my fellow stalkers!  Time for my annual, month-long Haunted Hollywood theme!  And yes, I do realize that October 1st is not actually until tomorrow, but I just could not wait one more day to get started!  So here goes!  My first Haunted Hollywood locale is actually one of my very…

  • My Guide to L.A. – Restaurants

    My Guide to L.A. – Restaurants

    ‘ I need to preface this post by stating that I am not in any way, shape or form a foodie.  I enjoy good, fresh fare, but my meal preferences consist mainly of old fashioned comfort foods (you’ll notice many mentions of different fried chicken entrées in the list below).  If a restaurant has bone…

  • Another Day Off

    Another Day Off

    ‘ I hate to do this again, but because I spent most of yesterday as a reader at the annual Read-In at the school where my mom used to teach, I did not have time to write a new blog post for today.  (The door decoration that the class I read for made for me…

  • The Great Quake of ’08!

    The Great Quake of ’08!

    ‘ Yesterday morning at around 11:42am a fairly large earthquake hit the LA area. I received a text message from a friend, who forgot that I am currently on vacation in Hawaii, asking if I felt the quake. My first thought was ” OMG! My Marilyn Merlot bottle!” LOL The bottle of Marilyn wine that…

  • The “Boy Meets World” House

    The “Boy Meets World” House

    ‘ Last Friday, a fellow stalker named Breanne contacted me to see if I could track down the supposed Philadelphia-area residence where the Matthews family – brothers Cory (Ben Savage), Eric (Will Friedle) and Joshua (Daniel Jacobs), sister Morgan (who was played by both Lily Nicksay and Lindsay Ridgeway), and parents Amy (Betsy Randle) and…

  • The “L.A. Story” Intersection

    The “L.A. Story” Intersection

    ‘ The locale from L.A. Story that I was most interested in tracking down was also the one that I thought for sure I would never find – the intersection featured in the movie’s opening montage.  Because the intersection was fairly non-descript, only shown briefly and no clues as to its location visible in the…

  • The Best Place to View the Hollywood Sign!

    The Best Place to View the Hollywood Sign!

    ‘ There is one site in Los Angeles that I absolutely never get tired of, no matter how many times I see it. Even though I can now officially call myself a native Angeleno, I am not ashamed to admit that I still get a little jolt of butterflies in my stomach every time I…
