  • Jane’s House from “Big Little Lies”

    Jane’s House from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ I am extremely biased when it comes to my former stomping ground of Pasadena, where I lived for close to 15 years.  Though I’ve heard on more than one occasion from L.A. denizens that the city is too suburban and too far removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life, I think it…

  • Quake!

    Quake!

    ‘ The other night while driving home from the hospital – yes, my dad is in the hospital yet again – I happened to hit a red light at the corner of Green Street and Arroyo Parkway in Pasadena. The light took a really long time to change and while waiting I just happened to…

  • Robbie Hart’s House

    Robbie Hart’s House

    ‘ Thanks to fellow stalker Owen, last week Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I were able to stalk Robbie Hart’”‘”‘s house from the 1998 romantic comedy The Wedding Singer.  I had actually been wanting to find The Wedding Singer  house for quite a while now, so when Owen told me that he knew where it was located, I just about died!!! …

  • The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “What Have They Done”

    The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “What Have They Done”

    ‘ I’ve made no secret of my apathy for the second season of Big Little Lies.  But I was, of course, still entranced by its locations, which I’ve been obsessively IDing ever since episode 1 aired in early June.  So I figure it is only appropriate to follow up my complete guide to the locales…

  • Daddy Day Care

    Daddy Day Care

    ‘ While out and about with my dad this week, I decided to stalk the home used in the Eddie Murphy movie Daddy Day Care. Since my dad just retired, he has been recruited to be my new stalking side kick! I think he loves it about just as much as my boyfriend does. 🙂…

  • The Governor’s Mansion from “Benson”

    The Governor’s Mansion from “Benson”

    ‘ A few weeks ago while out stalking in Pasadena I stopped to take some pics of the mansion that was used as the home of Governor Gatling in the 1979 television series . I had actually stalked this mansion eight years before when I first moved to Southern California, but had yet to blog…

  • The White House Gates from “Scandal”

    The White House Gates from “Scandal”

    ‘ My life as of late seems to be absorbed by Scandal.  As I mentioned last week, the Grim Cheaper and I have recently become addicted to the ABC series.  Besides watching it during pretty much every free waking moment, I have also been furiously researching the show’s filming locations.  While set in Washington, D.C.,…

  • The Evers’ House from “The Haunted Mansion”

    The Evers’ House from “The Haunted Mansion”

    ‘ My Los Angeles magazine editor is on vacation this week, so I will not have a post on LAmag.com today.  To make up for it, though, I’ve got a Haunted Hollywood locale for you right here!  One of my favorite parts about the Halloween season is watching scary movies.  (And of course stalking their…

  • The Gilmore Mansion from “Gilmore Girls”

    The Gilmore Mansion from “Gilmore Girls”

    ‘ While I realize this may be considered blasphemy in some circles, I have never really watched Gilmore Girls.  On paper, the show definitely looks like something that would appeal to me, but for whatever reason, I failed to tune in when it originally started airing in 2000.  At the behest of fellow stalker/Gilmore Girls…

  • CSI: Pasadena

    CSI: Pasadena

    ‘ My dad is not a big fan of Hollywood. And by Hollywood I mean the industry, not the town. He can’”‘”‘t stand all of the overindulged, self-absorbed actors, even though his own daughter is one (minus the overindulged, self-absorbed part, of course). 🙂 He just barely tolerates my stalking and often asks me why…
