Adam Kaufman as Parker Abrams.

Parker Abrams was a minor recurring character on the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. He appeared in several episodes from the fourth season. The character is portraid by Adam Kaufman.

Buffy meets Parker soon after her studies begin at the (fictional) UC-Sunnydale. He gave her the impression to be a suave and sensitive yonung man, with courteous mannerisms and boyish good looks. He and Buffy slept together soon after meeting. While Buffy felt that this sex represented an emotional bond, Parker just considered it to be physical gratification a moment of "healthy fun". Buffy was somewhat heartbroken, and her best friend Willow confronted Parker over what had happened. During that conversation, Parker attempted to seduce Willow, but she saw through his words. Later in the season, Buffy's new love interest Riley punched Parker after he made some rude comments about her. He was seen only a few more times, most notably when Buffy, having assumed a cavewoman's persona as a result of imbibing enchanted beer, rescued him from a fiery death -- and then knocked him unconscious when he tried to apologize for his earlier boorish behavior.

The character was not portrayed as "evil", but rather as a "jerk who won't call back."

Parker's name, as well as those of Riley Finn and Ben, yet another man involved with Buffy, might be references to Peter Parker, better known as Spider-Man, and his unpopular clone, Ben Reilly.

PLEASE DISCUSS CHARACTER ADDITTIONS/REMOVALS BEFORE MAKING CHANGES AT (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Buffyverse#Buffyverse-box_character_inclusions)

This box cannot/shouldn't be including every Buffyverse character. Some suggested guidelines are:

"The people who appeared in the opening credits (Scooby Gang & Fang Gang/FG) appear in the box, and the most important villains/friends who had a significant emotional impact on multiple of those opening credits characters - as long as they have a significant episode count, and preferably if they appear in three or more seasons."
