"It’s been interesting, because I’ve been (quarantined) at home for so much of it," Bassinger tells TVLine while discussing the Season 1 finale. "I’ve gotten recognized once, because I just don’t go out. Nothing’s open! But I had my mask on and sunglasses — I have to tell this story, because it’s so exciting for me! — and I was talking to this security guard. He goes, 'Take off your sunglasses.' I was like, Um, OK, why?' He was like, 'You know why.' So I slowly took them off, and he was like, 'You know why… Stargirl.' I fangirled more than he fangirled, because I was so freaking excited to meet a random person who loves this show. He was so into it, and it was the best feeling. My heart was so thrilled."
