  • The Reichman Mansion from “Major Crimes”

    The Reichman Mansion from “Major Crimes”

    The weather in L.A. has finally turned and there is now a crispness in the air ensuring that jacket season is finally upon us.  It is also, unfortunately, time to bid adieu to this year’s Haunted Hollywood postings.  Sadness!  For the next eleven months, I will just be writing about regular ol’ stalking locations.  So…

  • Canter’s Deli from “Entourage”

    Canter’s Deli from “Entourage”

    This will, unfortunately, be my last post for this week as I am heading out to Palm Springs bright and early tomorrow morning to take my dad to a few doctor appointments and I will not be back until late Thursday night.  And because I am going to the Emmy’s on Sunday (whoo hoo –…

  • Malibou Lake from “Parks and Recreation”

    Malibou Lake from “Parks and Recreation”

    A couple of months ago, I set out to find the lake house belonging to Donna Meagle (Retta) and her family in the Season 4 episode of fave show Parks and Recreation titled “Sweet Sixteen”.  (It was that search that led me to discover Johnson Lake in Pasadena, which I blogged about here.)  And while…

  • The Incorrectly Identified “Leave It to Beaver” House

    The Incorrectly Identified “Leave It to Beaver” House

    Last week, the latest issue of Los Angeles Magazine arrived in my mailbox and I, of course, tore the thing right open and devoured it in one sitting, as I do pretty much every month. Particularly fascinating was a feature titled “Affairs of Estate” about three unique communities in L.A., one of which – Lafayette…

  • Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center from “Parks and Recreation”

    Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center from “Parks and Recreation”

    One location that had been lingering at the top of my To-Stalk for more than a few months was Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank, which stands in for Pawnee Saint Joseph Hospital, where Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) works, on fave show Parks and Recreation.  I found this locale thanks to Mike, from the…

  • St. Vincent de Paul Church from “The Closer”

    St. Vincent de Paul Church from “The Closer”

    A couple of weeks ago, while watching the Season 7 episode of The Closer titled “Last Rites”, I received a text from my mom, who was also watching the show at the time.  She was curious to know if I was aware of what church the episode had been filmed at.  And, as fate would…

  • The Los Angeles Police Administration Building from “The Closer”

    The Los Angeles Police Administration Building from “The Closer”

    One location that I had long been desperate to stalk was the real life Los Angeles Police Administration Building – or the Los Angeles Police Department Headquarters, as it is also known – in downtown Los Angeles, which played itself each week on fave show The Closer.  So in honor of the series’ recently-aired final…

  • Floodlights Nightclub from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    Floodlights Nightclub from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    Located directly across the street from Calvert Studios – the studio where fave show Beverly Hills, 90210 was lensed and the location that currently stands in for the exterior of The Rub massage parlor on the Lifetime television series The Client List – is the office building that masqueraded as Floodlights nightclub in the Season…

  • The Rub from “The Client List”

    The Rub from “The Client List”

    Another The Client List location that fellow stalker Owen (aka Jennifer Love Hewitt’s biggest fan), from the When Write Is Wrong blog, tracked down recently was The Rub – the supposed Sugar Land, Texas-area massage parlor where JLove’s character, Riley Parks, works on the series.  Owen had actually been looking for the locale for quite…

  • The Burger That Ate L.A. from “Melrose Place”

    The Burger That Ate L.A. from “Melrose Place”

    Way back in July 2009, a fellow stalker named Zoe emailed me to ask for some help in tracking down a hamburger-shaped restaurant that had appeared regularly in establishing shots on the original Melrose Place. Because I had never really watched the series, though, and had never noticed a burger-shaped eatery in all my years…
