Introduced in Season Six, Andrew was a member of the Troika, Buffy's self-styled "arch nemesises" (sic).
A running joke in the show is that for a while nobody knew who Andrew was, and he was often referred to as "the other guy", "Tucker's brother", and so on.
Warren Mears, the leader of the gang, was clearly evil; Jonathan Levinson always had doubts and eventually helped save Buffy's life. Andrew occupied a sort of middle ground between these two, becoming more evil as the show progressed, for example, cheering "kill her!" as Warren fought Buffy, and actually killing Jonathan in Season Seven, but becoming somewhat remorseful and repentant afterwards, especially in the episode Storyteller. Thus, the character of Andrew is an example of the show's strong emphasis on redemption[?].
Other points of interest in Andrew's character include his apparent closeted homosexuality, and his geeky behaviour, for example, arguing that Timothy Dalton was the best James Bond.
