    The “Father of the Bride” Bar

    ‘ A few weeks ago, while wandering around Old Town Pasadena, my fiancé and I found ourselves in the familiar predicament of having to decide whether to go out to eat or cook dinner at home.  Being that the only thing I like to make for dinner is reservations, I voted to eat out and…

    Location Scout-ing!

    ‘ While in New York, I just had to take a jaunt over to the real life bar which stood in for Scout, the watering hole owned by Carrie and Miranda’”‘”‘s exes, Steve and Aiden, on Sex and the City. The bar first showed up in the Season Four episode entitled “Ghost Town”, in which…

  • Fog City Diner from “So I Married an Axe Murderer”

    Fog City Diner from “So I Married an Axe Murderer”

    ‘ I abhor change, as longtime readers of this site well know.  So I was devastated to learn that Fog City Diner, the landmark eatery in my hometown of San Francisco, had undergone a major revamp and reopened as the simpler, sleeker and far more modern “Fog City.”  The shiny chrome train-like structure situated on…

    Sorry For the Delay . . .

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past week.  We had friends in town visiting and I was a little remiss in my blogging duties.  I did do a ton of stalking while they were here, though (we even ran into Ken Todd while stalking TomTom, as you can see above!), so a bunch…

    The Central Park Boathouse Cafe

    ‘ One of the locations that I was most excited about stalking while in New York last month was a little restaurant named the Central Park Boathouse Cafe, also known as the Loeb Boathouse.  And although I’ve stalked this location once before – and even blogged about it – because the restaurant is not open…

    Molly Malone’s from “Patriot Games”

    ‘ Way back in mid-June, while trying to track down the Irish pub that masquerades as Scully’s bar on fave show Parks and Recreation (a location that I still have, maddeningly, yet to find, by the way), I came across a website for a Fairfax District-area watering hole named Molly Malone’s.  The website mentioned that…

    Jimmie’s House from “Pulp Fiction” – the Correct One!

    ‘ Last week, a location photographer named Cris emailed me to ask for some stalking help.  Turns out he had just scouted a house located at 4507 Kraft Avenue in Studio City and the owner (who bought the abode in 2009) had informed him that the residence had been used as Jimmie Dimmick’s (Quentin Tarantino’s)…

  • The “Easy A” House

    The “Easy A” House

    ‘ The Easy A location that I was most excited about stalking while in the Ojai area almost two years ago was, not surprisingly, the charming clapboard residence where Olive Penderghast (Emma Stone) lived with her unique family (notice they are all named after a food of some sort) – dad Dill (Stanley Tucci), mom…

  • Frank the Tank’s House from “Old School”

    Frank the Tank’s House from “Old School”

    ‘ Three weeks ago, fellow stalker Geoff, from the 90210Locations website, emailed me to let me know that he had recently tracked down the house where Frank Ricard (Will Ferrell), aka “Frank the Tank”, and his new wife, Marissa Jones (Perrey Reeves), aka “Mrs. Ari” from Entourage, lived – well, until she kicked him out…
