  • Candace’s Rental from “You”

    Candace’s Rental from “You”

    ‘ Though Anavrin was by far my favorite locale from the second season of the Netflix series You, I was also pretty darn smitten with the charming Victorian that Candace Stone (Ambyr Childers) rented during her stay in Los Angeles while posing as Amy Adam.  I was struck by the picturesque property as soon as…

  • Chasen’s Restaurant from “Enemy of the State”

    Chasen’s Restaurant from “Enemy of the State”

    ‘ I grew up about as far removed from Hollywood and the world of show business as you can get.  But somehow I was familiar with Chasen’s, the West Hollywood restaurant that played stomping ground to the Tinseltown elite for close to six decades.  I’m not sure where my knowledge of the famed eatery came…

  • Villa Sophia from the Final Episode of “Entourage”

    Villa Sophia from the Final Episode of “Entourage”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while the Grim Cheaper and I were out doing some stalking in the Hollywood area, I received an email from Constantine Vlahos, the owner of a Los Feliz mansion named Villa Sophia.  Constantine was writing to let me know that his home had been featured in the final episode…

  • Pete’s House from “Bridesmaids”

    Pete’s House from “Bridesmaids”

    ‘ Speaking of Cameron Woods (in case you missed Monday’s post, you can read it here) . . . while wandering around the neighborhood recently I was reminded of a spot that I stalked long ago but had yet to blog about – the house belonging to Pete (Brian Petsos) in the 2011 comedy Bridesmaids.  …

  • The Vera Wang Flagship Salon

    The Vera Wang Flagship Salon

    ‘ While I realize that today should really be the start of my annual, month long “Haunted Hollywood” theme, since I am on a plane right now headed to Manhattan, I decided to write a post about New York, my favorite city in the world, instead.  🙂  And since I’”‘”‘ve had weddings on the brain ever since…

  • The Historic El Paseo Shopping Center from “It’s Complicated”

    The Historic El Paseo Shopping Center from “It’s Complicated”

    ‘ Another It’s Complicated location that I stalked while visiting the Santa Barbara area a few weeks back was the historic El Paseo Shopping Center located in the heart of Downtown State Street.  In the movie, the Spanish-style marketplace stood in for the “Santa Barbara Medical Building” where Jane Adler’s (aka Meryl Streep’s) therapist, Dr.…

  • Ryden’s House from “Post Grad”

    Ryden’s House from “Post Grad”

    ‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while in the San Fernando Valley area this past weekend was the ranch-style house where Ryden Malby (aka Alexis Bledel) and her extremely odd, but extremely loveable family – dad Walter (aka Michael Keaton), mom Carmella (aka Jane Lynch), brother Hunter (aka Bobby…

  • Slacking Off . . . Again!

    Slacking Off . . . Again!

    ‘ I unfortunately do not have a blog to post for today (yet again!), but I do have a good excuse.  My dad had surgery yesterday at Cedars- Sinai Hospital to determine how much damage was done to his pancreas over the past three years while he was taking the medication that caused his pancreatitis. …

  • The Original Pantry Cafe

    The Original Pantry Cafe

    ‘ Well, it is shaping up to be restaurant week at iamnotastalker.com because for the third day in a row now here I am with yet another eatery to blog about – this time Downtown Los Angeles’ historic Original Pantry Café which first opened almost nine decades ago in 1924.  While I had actually known…

  • The Ojai Valley Inn & Spa from “The Bachelorette”

    The Ojai Valley Inn & Spa from “The Bachelorette”

    ‘ I know I said yesterday that today’s post would be about a Behind the Candelabra location, but I wound up getting a bit distracted by a spot that I stalked well over two years ago – the Ojai Valley Inn & Spa which appeared on this week’s episode of The Bachelorette. So y’all will…
