Let's make this birthday one to remember.

73 years old (Born on September 12, 1951)

Happy Birthday, Tom Fontana! May your day be as thrilling and unpredictable as an episode of "Oz," but hopefully with fewer lockdowns. Your storytelling genius has kept us glued to our screens—from the gritty corridors of Oswald State Correctional Facility to the intriguing halls of Bedford College—proving that nobody crafts drama quite like you.

Here's hoping this year brings even more success than your acclaimed work on "Copper." You've given audiences unforgettable characters, gripping plots, and countless sleepless nights binge-watching. Cheers to another fantastic season in life; may it have all the excitement—but none of the cliffhangers!
