Oz: Sometimes furry, always quotable

Seth Green as Oz in Buffy the Vampire SlayerThe greatness of the Scooby
Gang on Buffy the Vampire Slayer was enhanced by the addition of Oz (Daniel
Osbourne) in seasons two, three, and four. Sometimes a werewolf, mostly
Willow's boyfriend, he added a new level of comedic relief to Buffy.
It wasn't the situations he was in, nor did he take the pratfall route. Oz
was dry -- dry like a desert, dry like overcooked Thanksgiving turkey, dry
like a leather shoe left out in the sun for several thousand years. Master
of the understatement, man of few words, sarcasm blended with wit.
Arguably, Oz was the most quotable character on Buffy. For instance, when
he found out vampires were real, he simply stated, "That explains a lot!"
Another of my favorite Oz quotes was from season four, when Buffy was
complaining about her college roommate and punching the air. Oz posits, "No
one deserves mime, Buffy."
Revisit some of Oz's best quotable moments from each season he appears in
and enjoy a giggle or two remembering the werewolf with a sense of humor.
