What if Oz never left?

oz was much loved! And Willow and Oz were soo CUTE together! but im not sure their love was strong enough for the future....
but i think Oz would have been cool if he stayed on. But would have been cooler if he went into Angel!

I completely loved Oz and Seth Green... I was SO sad when they wrote him out of the show, and I will always have hope for Woz. 🙂 As much as I love Tara, I always wanted Willow to get back together with Oz. 🙂

I am a huge Oz fan. I would have loved to see him stay longer! He just added some brilliant humour and some really memorable lines. I loved the end of season three, he just seemed so part of the group when he said 'Not The battle, high school.'

Joss stated on Hulu's Q&A when asked on Oz's storyline and commented that Oz would have the same route as Veruca did but more long and torture.

Seriously? That would have been interesting to see. Not nice for him though, or for Willow.

I've always loved Oz, and it was such a shame he left so quickly. It would be great to have had him around a little bit longer. Even if that meant he would go all evil and Veruca. At least Seth is a good actor, who would bring the 'wolf inside' thing in a believable way 😛

I would have liked to have seen him go all Veruca on us. I kind of love it when good guys go bad and when bad guys go good. Hence the Buffy love. lol. Anyway, I think that would have been a great story for Oz and I agree that it would have been neat to see Seth Green pull it off. He's a good actor.

Oz had to leave because Willow's character was going to go gay whether or not he stayed. So it would have been extremely ackward if he were to stay.

I disagree. Had Seth Green remained with the show, I don't think BtVS would have shied away from that aspect of human sexuality. It is not at all unusual for people to have dated members of the opposite sex before coming out, nor is it unusual for those former flames to have mixed or even intense emotional responses. Given more time for development, I think the story could have been a very interesting arc.
