I chatted a whole bunch to Rob Shearman on and off OG a couple years back, after he found me raving like a loon in my LJ over the brilliance of Scherzo.
It is, indeed, really freaky when the creator of something you've been wibbling over steps in to say "Hey, thanks!" and offers to read your fanfic (although I don't think he ever actually got around to it in this case -- possibly for the best).
My other fannish wig-out moment was when Henry Ian Cusick went egosurfing and found my LJ review of his performance as Jesus in The Gospel of John. He left me a comment and I just about died. And now he's on 24 and Lost and starting to get all famous-like. It's wild.
