  • Now! Clothing from “L.A. Story”

    Now! Clothing from “L.A. Story”

    My second most-wanted location from the 1991 classic comedy L.A. Story was Now!, the ultra-hip clothing store with unisex dressing rooms where SanDeE* (my girl Sarah Jessica Parker) worked.  (My first most-wanted was, of course, the iconic freeway sign that I blogged about last Thursday.)  So I was floored to see that the locale was…

  • Neptune’s Net from “The Hills”

    Neptune’s Net from “The Hills”

    One location that had been at the top of my To-Stalk list for a couple of years, but had, for whatever reason, remained unstalked was Neptune’s Net – an oft-filmed-at eatery and Malibu institution that was featured on one of my favorite shows of all time, The Hills, in a scene featuring none other than…

  • Shannen Doherty’s Former Mulholland Drive Rental

    Shannen Doherty’s Former Mulholland Drive Rental

    Another locale that I found thanks to Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites, the fabulous book written by my buddy E.J. of The Movieland Directory, was the house at 13459 Mulholland Drive that was once rented by my girl Shannen Doherty and that was also the location of her ill-fated 1993 nuptials to Ashley Hamilton, son…

  • Brandi Glanville’s Former House

    Brandi Glanville’s Former House

    After watching the latest season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, I can say that Brandi Glanville is, without a doubt, my favorite cast member.  I absolutely ADORE her.  (I also love Lisa Vanderpump and Yolanda Foster.  As for the rest of the Housewives?  Well, to borrow one of my grandma’s catch-phrases, they can…

  • The “Burning Love” Mansion

    The “Burning Love” Mansion

    This past February, thanks to Reality Steve and the E! Channel, I was introduced to the brilliance that is the Ben Stiller-produced parody of The Bachelor titled Burning Love. The Hose Ceremonies along with the catchphrase “Will you accept my hose?” are pure comic genius! The last time I found myself laughing so much over…

  • The O’Neill House from "Beverly Hills, 90210"

    The O’Neill House from "Beverly Hills, 90210"

    While perusing the article “The Ultimate Guide to Hidden L.A.” in the February 2013 issue of Los Angeles Magazine, I came across a blurb about the O’Neill House in Beverly Hills – one of Southern California’s most unique residences – and recognized the place immediately.  I had seen the property featured in a production a…

  • The Apple Pan from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    The Apple Pan from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    While the Grim Cheaper and I were out and about doing some stalking in the West L.A. area two weekends ago, we happened to pass by The Apple Pan, the exterior of which masqueraded as the original Peach Pit on fave show Beverly Hills, 90210.  Finding ourselves both hungry, we decided to pop in for…

  • Loretta Young’s Former West Hollywood House

    Loretta Young’s Former West Hollywood House

    Once I discovered that Loretta Young’s Palm Springs house (which I blogged about on Tuesday) was not, in fact, the place where Judy Lewis (the legendary actress’ secret love child with Clark Gable) learned the truth about her birth, I set out to track down the location where the encounter actually did take place.  And…

  • Loretta Young’s Palm Springs House

    Loretta Young’s Palm Springs House

    While doing research on the Playa del Rey house where Judy Lewis (secret love child of Loretta Young and Clark Gable) was born (which I blogged about here), I came across a November 2011 The New York Times article about Lewis’ recent death which stated that the actress/psychotherapist was finally told the true story of…

  • The Safari Inn from “True Romance”

    The Safari Inn from “True Romance”

    One oft-filmed-at locale that I had known about for ages, but had never gotten around to stalking was the historic Safari Inn on West Olive Avenue in Burbank. I had driven by the motel countless times over the years – I get my hair done right across the street, in fact – and, even though…
