An Evening with “The Closer” at The Paley Center for Media
‘ While perusing my Picasa photo account yesterday, I realized that I have been seriously lagging on my Celebrity Sightings posts, as there are numerous events that I have yet to blog about, most notably one that I attended well over a month ago – The Paley Center for Media’s An Evening with The Closer…

McSorley’s Old Ale House from “Rounders”
‘ It has been said that 60% of restaurants close within a year of opening and that 80% don’t make it past year five. Many in New York, though, have real staying power.

Mitch’s House from “The Morning Show”
‘ My dad is unfortunately back in the hospital and right now this blog is one of the main things keeping me sane. Being able to research, track down and write about filming locations, trivial as that may be, sparks major joy for me and has provided a much-needed distraction from all that is going…

Westfield Culver City from “Girls Just Want to Have Fun”
‘ Some filming locations are maddeningly elusive. One that remained a thorn in my side for ages was the mall where Janey Glenn (Sarah Jessica Parker) and Lynne Stone (Helen Hunt) shopped in Girls Just Want to Have Fun, which, for those who haven’t been paying attention over the years, is one of my all-time…
