I have enjoyed relaxing for most of this Saturday, taking things real slow as opposed to the school week where I only have seconds to spare. So how do I spend downtime? Walking to the market to pick up some fruits and veggies, catching up on blogs I read, writing emails, and of course watch a little bit of ‘The Office’ for a few laughs. Why do I mention this? Well, as I was watching the episode ‘Sabre’ from season six I noticed something as characters Jim and Pam were at a daycare center, hoping to secure a spot for their soon to come baby. The location looked a little familiar…
The address atop is 2030...
At 2030 Colorado Boulevard we have…
Peekaboo Playland!
An other clue was here
So the building they are in has a brick exterior, okay Peekaboo has a brick exterior, check. The building across the street. Hmm… let’s see what the building across the street from Peekaboo looks like
Well, I was convinced, checked online and IMDB confirmed it– Filming Locations: Peekaboo Playland – 2030 Colorado Blvd., Eagle Rock, Los Angeles, California, USA
So I am a bit late on posting this, it is hardly considered news, I just thought I’d share this. There was a big buzz when the show ‘Glee’ filmed at the Eagle Rock Plaza but perhaps the ‘Glee’ crowd is more talkative than ‘The Office’ fans. Did anyone catch this when watching this episode?
Reason #6 to walk Eagle Rock: Skip driving around town and instead become so familiar with the community, walking at a peaceful pace so you are able to spot some of ER’s cameos on television shows and say “Hey, I know that place, that’s right around the corner from here!”

[...] And while walking back from Target last week we passed by a ton of houses that had been burned down that day (on purpose) while shooting the show True Blood. A woman across the street from that site told us that at 4am they were filming, so she had an interesting time watching the vampires scream and run around. I don’t watch that show but it’s always fun to hear about stuff like that. On a similar note, while meeting people (found via Craigslist) about a nanny job this weekend, they tried introducing me to their neighbor, the drummer for Weezer (so I could nanny for them too), but he wasn’t home. There’s your Hollywood gossip/news for the day, Eagle Rock edition! And if anyone’s wondering about the possible John Krasinski spotting I mentioned at the end of May- it never happened! The set kept moving all over town and I couldn’t keep up! Major bummer that this is the second time I missed seeing Krasinski in this neighborhood! (the first was here.) [...]
