  • The “Whatever It Takes” Houses

    The “Whatever It Takes” Houses

    I am all about teen comedies, even admittedly bad ones.  Drive Me Crazy is one of my favorite movies ever, I loved all of the Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen destination flicks, and Get Over It cracks me up every time I watch, even though I’ve seen it repeatedly.  So I was shocked when I…

  • Chateau Emanuel from “The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley”

    Chateau Emanuel from “The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley”

    I am a HUGE fan of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen movies, as I have mentioned previously.  Passport to Paris, When in Rome, New York Minute – all favorites, even though I am just a wee bit off age-wise when it comes to their target demographic.  So when fellow stalker Chris (he’s the one who tracked…

  • Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year!

    I would like to wish my fellow stalkers a very happy New Year!  I hope you are all enjoying the holiday with loved ones and several glasses of bubbly!

  • The Manhattan Beach Marriott Hotel from “90210”

    The Manhattan Beach Marriott Hotel from “90210”

    Another location that the Grim Cheaper and I stopped by a couple of weeks ago while doing some stalking in the South Bay was the Manhattan Beach Marriott, which stood in for the supposed-Beverly-Hills-area hotel where the West Beverly High Senior Prom was held in the Season 3 episode of fave show 90210 titled “The…

  • The License to Drive School

    The License to Drive School

    This weekend, thanks to Mike over at MovieShotsLA, I got to stalk the high school used in fave 80s movie License to Drive. When I found out that Mike had found this filming location long ago, I completely freaked out and of course immediately dragged my boyfriend, and my good friend Nat who was visiting…

  • Harbor Steps Apartments from “The Ring”

    Harbor Steps Apartments from “The Ring”

    I am reaching deep into my stalking vault for today’s location.  I visited the Harbor Steps Apartments from The Ring during a trip to Seattle well over four years ago – shortly after being caught in a torrential downpour, which explains my hat in the above photograph – but somehow failed to blog about them. …

  • The Salomon Family’s Former Home

    The Salomon Family’s Former Home

    The second I pulled the July issue of Los Angeles magazine out of my mailbox, I knew I was a goner.  Not only did the publication chronicle the city’s best fried chicken (my favorite food), but six words on the cover stopped me dead in my tracks – “Searching for the Family that Vanished.”  Resigned…

  • Go Team Nicole!

    Go Team Nicole!

    My mom called me in a complete tizzy last week screaming at me to immediately turn my TV onto Bravo. It turns out that Nicole, Nick Arrojo’s assistant who worked on my mom’s hair during her appointment with Nick last December, is currently competing on Season 2 of the TV show Shear Genius. Shear Genius…

  • The Barthman Sidewalk Clock

    The Barthman Sidewalk Clock

    It has been said that you shouldn’t look down when you walk.  There are two places in Manhattan where you ought to keep your eyes on the pavement, though.  I blogged about one, Hess Triangle in front of Village Cigars, on Wednesday.  The other, a clock imbedded in concrete outside of what was once William…

  • Zipper Concert Hall from “The West Wing”

    Zipper Concert Hall from “The West Wing”

    Most actors will tell you that extra work is the worst.  But when I first landed in L.A. back in 2000, I did quite a bit of it and couldn’t have enjoyed myself more.  Just being on a movie or television set was surreal and provided an indelible opportunity to observe the inner workings of…
