Not all bloodsuckers are created equal: check out this ranking of Buffy’s fanged enemies, allies, and occasional boyfriends.
The Anointed One
First appearance: "Never Kill a Boy on the First Date"
Number of episodes: 6
Remember when Spike called him "The Annoying One" and it was the most accurate assessment ever? Aside from the terrible child acting — seriously so bad — The Anointed One never really did anything. OK, he led Buffy to The Master, but literally any vampire could have done that.

Lyle and Tector Gorch
First appearance: "Bad Eggs"
Number of episodes: 2
I could have ranked Lyle and Tector separately. I could also have included an entry for gone-too-soon Candy Gorch. But honestly, the less time we spend on this family, the better. While they only appeared briefly, they left an impression as the most annoying vampires Buffy ever encountered.

Andrew Borba
First appearance: "Never Kill a Boy on a First Date"
Number of episodes: 1
Andrew Borba is kind of cool in that he was a religious zealot psychopath before he got turned. But he's also a red herring who distracts Buffy from the identity of the real Anointed One. If he lasted longer, maybe he'd be higher on the list, but as it stands, he's hardly memorable.

Luke
First appearance: "Welcome to the Hellmouth"
Number of episodes: 2
Early on, Buffy didn't seem to realize that vampires could be threatening without looking like total meatheads. Luke was a little too thick to be taken seriously — Brian Thompson did a better job playing The Judge in Season 2. (And a Super Soldier on The X-Files.)
