  • Mia’s House from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    Mia’s House from “Little Fires Everywhere”

    Reese Witherspoon certainly is the darling of streaming TV!  First Big Little Lies (that’s HBO, but still), then The Morning Show, then Truth Be Told (which she executive-produced) and now Little Fires Everywhere.  The latter, which is currently airing on Hulu, is an adaptation of Celest Ng’s 2017 book of the same name.  Centering around…

  • The CalEdison from “The Morning Show”

    The CalEdison from “The Morning Show”

    L.A. never ceases to amaze!  Case in point – the CalEdison.  Built in 1931, the Art Deco masterpiece is not only a sight to behold, but its grand lobby is open to the public!  Somehow though, I never knew about the place until last week when I was researching locations from The Morning Show. During…

  • The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    I love a good Starbucks location!  I mean, what’s better than stalking and being able to pick up a great cup of coffee at the same time?  So I was thrilled to recognize an outpost of the java giant while watching the fifth episode of The Morning Show, titled “No One’s Gonna Harm You, Not…

  • Bradley’s Mom’s House from “The Morning Show”

    Bradley’s Mom’s House from “The Morning Show”

    The Morning Show really threw me for a loop, location-wise (as I mentioned in this recent post).  Set in NYC, I got through the entire first episode of the new Apple TV+ series thinking it was shot in the Big Apple, as well.  I did have a couple moments of hesitation in that belief while…

  • The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “Kill Me”

    The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “Kill Me”

    The fifth episode of Big Little Lies’ second season may have lacked pizzazz (especially since the much-anticipated ice-cream-throwing scene was cut!), but it sure boasted a lot of locations.  Read on to discover which spots the Monterey 5 frequented in “Kill Me.”  (Note – as was the case with my posts about the locales from…

  • The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “Tell-Tale Hearts”

    The Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies” Season 2 – “Tell-Tale Hearts”

    “Tell-Tale Hearts,” the second episode of Big Little Lies’ second season, boasts some of the series’ most quotable, meme-worthy moments, largely thanks to the inimitable Renata Klein (Laura Dern) – “Will somebody give a woman a moment??”  It also features some of the show’s most memorable locales [the forest where Bonnie Carlson (Zoë Kravitz) hikes…

  • Seaside Coffee Shop from “Big Little Lies”

    Seaside Coffee Shop from “Big Little Lies”

    My favorite filming location find from this season of Big Little Lies isn’t actually a filming location at all!  Back on March 19th, 2018, shortly after shooting of S2 commenced, Reese Witherspoon posted an Instagram photo of herself sitting in front of the supposed Central Coast-area Seaside Coffee Shop with costar Laura Dern, captioning, “Watch…

  • Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”

    Madeline’s Real Estate Office from “Big Little Lies”

    I try to keep things positive on this blog, but, man, Sunday night’s Big Little Lies finale was an epic disappointment!  The entire season was hugely lackluster, truth be told, which is especially frustrating considering the outright perfection of Season 1.  I will contend that the first few episodes started out semi-promising, but the show…

  • Blissful Drip Café from “Big Little Lies”

    Blissful Drip Café from “Big Little Lies”

    Big Little Lies producers sure like their fake coffee shops!  In the hit HBO series’ first season, Madeline Martha Mackenzie (Reese Witherspoon), Celeste Wright (Nicole Kidman) and Jane Chapman (Shailene Woodley) regularly hung out at Blue Blues, a supposed Old Fisherman’s Wharf restaurant that, as I mentioned here and here, was actually a studio-built set…

  • The Complete Guide to the Season 1 Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies”

    The Complete Guide to the Season 1 Filming Locations of “Big Little Lies”

    As longtime readers know, I watch a LOT of TV.  Only a handful of shows have ever become full-fledged obsessions, though, Beverly Hills, 90210, The Hills, and Big Littles Lies among them.  The second season of the latter will finally be debuting in June and I am beyond excited!  I cannot wait to revisit the…
