Bookstar from “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ I have certainly been revisiting the past lately, as evidenced here, here, and here. Maybe it has something to do with nostalgia hitting me after our recent move. Whatever the reason, here I am yet again with yet another redux. Today’s locale is a favorite, one that I originally covered in May 2008 –…

SPARCinLA from “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are moving in a couple of days (we bought a house out here in the desert – our first house!) and while packing last week I informed him that as soon as we got settled we would be taking a trip to Los Angeles as I “have nothing to…

The SmokeHouse Restaurant from “Lucifer”
‘ Hollywood loves a redux. So do I, apparently, because here I am yet again with yet another location re-do! (For those who missed it, I penned a second post on the Simpson family home from She’s Out of Control last week.) Today’s blog is actually my third go-around with this particular spot (you can…

Barnsdall Art Park from “Big Little Lies”
‘ The Grim Cheaper is easily the most creative gift-giver I know. Not only does he find incredibly thoughtful presents, but he always comes up with highly unique ways of presenting them. I have only ever managed to match his ingenuity on rare occasions – one being Valentine’s Day 2011 when I created a scavenger…

Emerson College Los Angeles from “Scandal”
‘ Despite the fact that I live in Palm Springs, I tend to think of myself as having my finger on the pulse of L.A. But when penning A Film Lover’s Guide to Tomorrow’s Movie Location Stars for Los Angeles magazine in 2015, I overlooked two key spots, which I hope speaks more to the…

Rise N Grind from “Veep”
‘ I have never been one for New Year’s resolutions. That being said, in 2018 I am hoping to regularly exercise, be kinder (to myself and others), drink more water and less champagne, and cut down on my daily latte regimen. The last one is going to be much easier said than done. No matter…

Home Restaurant from “Raines”
‘ Every once in a while a show comes along that immediately hooks me. Such was the case with Raines, an extremely short-lived police procedural boasting a scant seven-episode run. I was unaware of the NBC series at the time of its original airing in March 2007. In fact, I only learned of it this…

The Site of Sanford and Son Salvage from “Sanford and Son”
‘ There’s pretty much nothing I relish more than diving into the nitty-gritty when proving or disproving a location – especially if that location is from an old production and/or is no longer in existence. I love the challenge of it. I recently had the pleasure of delving into one such case thanks to a…

Arrowhead Pine Rose Cabins from “Veep”
‘ I often find myself thinking about how fabulous it would be if Instagram had existed back when Beverly Hills, 90210 was still on the air. One of my most-loved down-time activities is perusing the feed of actors currently starring on shows I watch to see the various behind-the-scenes stories and photos they post. Not…

“The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet” House
‘ My knowledge of the Golden Age of Television doesn’t extend much beyond I Love Lucy, which I watched regularly with my grandma as a child. I am so out of the loop when it comes to entertainment of that era, in fact, that up until recently coming across a blurb in my friend E.J.’s…
