Back in her Buffy days, Hannigan played Willow, the slayer's best friend and confidante. On the show, she had her fair share of romances, one of which was with Seth Green. Well, not Green, but his character, Oz. The actor appeared on Buffy from 1997 to 2000. Now, he's reuniting with his former TV love on How I Met Your Mother.
