The Beethoven House
‘ Got a challenge from Debbie a few weeks back to find the house used in the 1992 movie Beethoven and its many subsequent sequels. Debbie had just read my post on the Camden house from the television series 7th Heaven and was struck by how similar it looked to the home used in the…

Kaldi Coffee and Tea from “Lady Bird”
‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are almost all settled in to our new desert home, so I should be getting back to my regularly scheduled blog programing in the near future. Thanks for bearing with me over the past few weeks. For my first post-move locale, I thought I’d write about a spot I…

The Family House
‘ My good friend and fellow stalker Kerry is a huge fan of the 1976 television show and I just found out that while she has stalked the home used in the series several times, she doesn’”‘”‘t have any photographs of it. So I just had to go out and stalk the house for her…

The “Step by Step” House
‘ One location fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for quite some time now is the house where the Lambert Family lived in the 1990′”‘”‘s television sitcom Step by Step.

The Tire House from “Pee-wee’s Big Holiday”
‘ Today’s locale is becoming quite the prolific film star! I’ve blogged about the residence at 800 Adelaine Avenue in South Pasadena previously – twice, in fact.

South Pasadena Public Library from “Say Anything . . . “
‘ I was incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of John Mahoney last week. Not only did I love the actor in pretty much every role he played, but his Hollywood story is such an unusual and admirable one. After graduating from college, Mahoney tried his hand at a few different occupations including teaching…

Sara’s House from “Grandfathered”
‘ I always find it amusing when the exterior of a home is changed between a television show’s pilot and its subsequent episodes (which happens often, as I have mentioned numerous times on this site), but the interior is kept the same. Such was the case with the ranch-style residence where Sara (Paget Brewster, who…

Catherine Willows’ House from “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”
‘ I’ll never forget the first time I saw CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. It was back in 2003 and my parents had come home from a random stop at the video store (remember those?) with a DVD of the series’ inaugural season in hand. I had not heard of the show at the time and…

The “Mama’s Family” Houses
‘ I have dreamed of writing this post for so long! One of the locations I get asked about the most (I literally get emails and comments about it all the time!) is the house that portrayed Thelma Harper’s (Vicki Lawrence) residence during the first two seasons of Mama’s Family. For those who aren’t familiar…
