I'm sure viewers have their favorite couples from Buffy. And Tara was a nice character. But for me, I always treasured the character of Oz, the stoic reserved wolfboy who adored the shy nerdy Willow. His love helped her to blossom. You never forget your first love....

Oz was a great character. He was the catalyst that propelled Willow???s development from shy wallflower to a bright, quirky, comfortable-in-her-own skin high school girl. He was her first love, and their relationship was sweet and pure and (relatively) innocent.

But again, he was her first love. First loves rarely last (and I don???t think they???re usually meant to). The fact that his love made Willow blossom so much as a person is what helped her become secure enough to fall in love with Tara. I think it would have been such a disservice to her character development not to use the impetus that Oz???s character provided to open her up to a relationship with Tara.

I loved Oz, but he served his purpose in the overall Buffyverse and then left to make way for other loves in WIllow's life.

If I were to agree with this, it would only be because Seth Green is awesome. I personally preferred Willow & Tara. Cuz, you know, guys like two chicks kissing.

Seriously, though, Willow was a more interesting character post-Oz.

What about Willow/Kennedy? I liked how butch Kennedy was compared to Tara and Oz.

A lot of people agree with huzzah that Willow was more interesting post-Oz, but I disagree. Mostly, I preferred it when her contributions to the group weren't based on magic, but on her incredible intelligence and computer skills. I always hated it that once the magic came in, there were fewer and fewer references to how brilliant she was.

I liked Willow and Oz together...but I absolutely loved Willow and Tara together...I think they were meant to be...and I hate that Tara died in Seeing Red...it broke my heart. As for Willow and Kennedy...I absolutely despised them together...mostly becuz I hated Kennedy...

willow and tara all the way...oz may have been her first love, but tara was her first real love...if you assume she was/is really gay, her and oz would have never worked, which is why she picked tara over oz

seth green does kick **** though

While I have to admit I really do love Oz, there were a few things about him and Willow that will just never be the way that Willow and Tara were for me. This was totally a hard one to decide...

I heard a rumor that they made Willow gay because Seth Green was a pain in the **** to work with. Anyone else hear this? Seems unlikely--but you never know.

Mar142003_700_lg

Again more rumors, but Joss did plan all along to make Willow gay...I couldn't even begin to tell you where I heard this or when so....
