Unlike the original “Full House” TV series, which used a real house in San Francisco for exterior shots of the Tanner house, Netflix’s “Fuller House” opted to instead build this replica on the Warner Bros. lot. This could change in the future, however, due to the fact show creator Jeff Franklin purchased the original house from the show in 2016.

The comedy classic “National Lampoon’s Vacation” is set all across the United States, but a good portion of the filming was based in Southern California.

The hotel where Clark goes skinny dipping with “The Girl in the Ferarri,” played by Christie Brinkley, is the Guesthouse Hotel in Norwalk, California. Despite some remodeling and changes in ownership, the pool area is still fairly recognizable to how it appeared in the film.

LOCATION: 12500 Firestone Blvd, Norwalk, CA 90650

The production was clever when it came to filming the “Walley World” entrance at the end of the film. While the amusement park used in the film was Six Flags Magic Mountain (26101 Magic Mountain Pkwy., Valencia, CA 91355), the memorable entrance was a totally different location; the Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California. This overpass was used as the entrance, with a matte painting of the Walley World sign and the roller coasters in the background. The overpass is actually on the outskirts of the park, right beside the Westfield Santa Anita mall. In this case, the exact address is tricky, as the grounds are large and it only navigates you to the general vicinity. A tip on how to find the exact spot is to drive down W Huntington Dr. towards S. Baldwin Ave. As you near the mall’s parking lot, drive past the overpass entrance and proceed to the next entrance, into the mall parking lot. As soon as you turn off of Huntington Dr. to the mall, you’ll immediately see this view of the Santa Anita Park parking lot on your right, with the Walley World overpass in the distance.
LOCATION: 285 W Huntington Dr, Arcadia, CA 91007

You may or may not know that you can see almost any television talk show for free. There are worse ways to spend an afternoon, if you’re curious to check one out. Just a warning, if you do, be prepared to endure long lines, sitting in waiting areas and a pretty fast taping, once you finally do get to the stage. The shows need to provide a lot of daily content, so it’s all done very efficiently and like clockwork. Just remind yourself it’s free.
If you’re in the Los Angeles area, you can check out Conan. The late night show tapes at the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank, CA.

LOCATION: 4000 Warner Blvd, Burbank, CA 91505
