    All Marilyn, All the Time!

    ‘ I dragged my mom to Hollywood last Friday to do a little Marilyn stalking. She wasn’”‘”‘t too keen on the idea, but I was absolutely dying to do something I had yet to do in all the years I have lived in LA – I wanted to put my hands in Marilyn Monroe’”‘”‘s handprints…

  • The “Shadow of a Doubt” Remake House

    The “Shadow of a Doubt” Remake House

    ‘ Let’s be honest – remakes are rarely, if ever, good.  Especially if they’re of the made-for-television movie variety.  Despite that fact, when I heard that the house from the 1991 made-for-television remake of Shadow of a Doubt was located right across the street from the pad featured in the 1943 original, I just had…

  • The Second Peach Pit

    The Second Peach Pit

    ‘ Two weekends ago, thanks to Mike from MovieShotsLA, I was able to stalk a location that I have long been on the lookout for – the storefront that was used as the second Peach Pit on the original Beverly Hills, 90210  series.   Yes, I did say the “second” Peach Pit.  As most fans of the series…

  • “The Exorcist” House and Stairs

    “The Exorcist” House and Stairs

    ‘ I’ve ventured down a deep, dark rabbit hole today, friends.  I should back up and explain from the beginning.  Last night, the Grim Cheaper and I watched The Exorcist for the first time.  I had come across images of the stately brick house and adjacent towering staircase featured in the iconic 1973 horror flick…

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I took off for the desert again this past weekend, so I, unfortunately, was not able to write a new post for today.  But I do promise to be back tomorrow with a whole new location. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The “Larry Crowne” Apartment Building

    The “Larry Crowne” Apartment Building

    ‘ Two additional Larry Crowne filming locations that I stalked this past weekend were Talia’s, the vintage clothing store owned by Talia Francesco (aka the adorable Gugu Mbatha-Raw), and the apartment building where Larry Crowne (aka Tom Hanks) lived at the very end of the flick, both of which are housed inside of the same…

  • The New York Palace Hotel

    The New York Palace Hotel

    ‘ Yet another Gossip Girl location that I set out to stalk during this year’s Manhattan vacation was the New York Palace Hotel, a locale which has appeared in pretty much every single episode of the series since it began back in 2007.   Truth be told, though, I actually first stalked this location quite a…

  • The Little Door Restaurant from “Monster-in-Law”

    The Little Door Restaurant from “Monster-in-Law”

    ‘ One restaurant that I have long wanted to stalk, but could just never seem to find was the adorable little outdoor courtyard spot where Kevin Fields (aka Michael Vartan), his mother, Viola Fields (aka Jane Fonda), and his new fiancé, Charlie Cantilini (aka Jennifer Lopez), lunched towards the end of the 2005 romantic comedy…

  • The Frederick Mitchell Mooers House from “Mod Squad”

    The Frederick Mitchell Mooers House from “Mod Squad”

    ‘ As I’ve said before, stalking begets stalking.  Back in January, I wrote a post about a spectacular abandoned residence that had been featured in recent episodes of both Major Crimes and Parks and Recreation.  A longtime reader (a veeeery longtime reader, pretty sure he’s been with me since the beginning!) named John was intrigued…
