Over the years, even Buffy Vampire Slayer It’s hard for fans to describe Oz’s character, the Chill-Beyond-Chill-Chill-Chill Sunnydale musician played by Seth Green. It is not difficult to see the reason. The personality of the ounce is Completely The difference from other sermons is that the demonic characters with outsiders like Anya and Spike seem to fit the gang better than Aloof Oz. However, it turns out that the script states Buffy The plot “Inca Mummy Girl” perfectly explains Oz’s character and points out that Oz has “coolness that is totally unaware of himself.”

Explain the ounce

Those ones Buffy The script comments help explain some of the paradoxes of the Wizard of Oz, including his irony (a very defined character trait) that has never been particularly cruel. According to the script, “Silent constraints and total lack of pain [Oz’s] Satire. “This is probably the most obvious when you compare this wolf-small Wunderkind to ironic characters like Cordelia and Spike.

By the way, Cordelia served as Oz’s peer in the first three seasons Buffy By providing real irony, not his gentle ridicule. After she left Sunnydale after Season 3, the show brought Anya and Spike, taking the show’s satire to the next level. Sadly, the unexpected departure of The Wizard of Oz in Season 4 means that the extra meanness is no longer balanced with it.

His debut Buffy The script notes for the plot further explain Oz’s character by comparing Oz’s character with one of his musicians: “Devon is your typical excitement rock music, and Oz cannot be ignored at all.” Of course, Oz’s big All the wild things that step forward prove this, including the existence of the vampire and the fact that he is now a werewolf. Buffy Of course, most laughs laughed, but the truth is that Oz endured something that would destroy the brains of most Sunnydale residents, and nothing was angry or scared.

This brings us to the final notes Buffy Script about the Wizard of Oz: “His coolness of totally not knowing himself.” As a longtime fan, this is the line that really explains to me the entire deal of Oz. In another show or movie, the Wizard of Oz will be a self-conscious cool character like Jeff Weiger Community. But while Jeff’s ego forces him to be the center of attention all the time, the Wizard of Oz has a Zen-like calm that can help him fit into any situation or group.

for Buffy Fans, this is just further evidence that Oz’s character, like Buffy, Willow and many others, is relatively unique in the TV landscape. No other show (genre or other) is able to strip the ounce of an ounce with a new character, he is sarcastic in the irony, charmingly cool and ultimately unintelligible. even Buffy Vampire Slayer Never tried to really replace Oz, which is why other characters stepped into his former Scooby partner characters (like Anya and Spike aforementioned) had completely different personalities.

Some Buffy Fanatics may find these notes about the Wizard of Oz a little obvious, but I think they are fascinating glimpses of the show’s most mysterious (and shockingly mysterious) characters. The Wizard of Oz was written in a paradox from the beginning: a sarcastic person, but not cunning, cool and not cruel, completely unaware of his hips. And, if we are all lucky, the light of the next full moon may cool us all even like the wolfiest rocker in Sunnydale.
