* FlatCharacter: The reason why he was ultimately killed off is because he had no personality to speak of and thus the writers had no idea how to utilize him. However, he was brought back in season 10, when he became a moody, suicidal young man due to the things he witnessed during the Iraq War.

* TwoFirstNames: Both "John" and "Herbert" are names commonly used as a person's first name, which is why the reveal that "Herbert" is actually his last name in season 11 was a surprise.

* AscendedExtra: He first appeared as a bit character in season three, a whole season after his son first debuted. He later went on to become a SixthRanger of sorts to Peter's group of friends, and now has more appearances under his belt than his son.

* TookALevelInBadass: It's easy to forget, but Kevin DID serve for his country and learned to use a crossbow while in Iraq.
* TookALevelInJerkass: {{Justified}}, due his time in Iraq obviously weighing on him mentally, but in the first three seasons, Kevin was shown to be quite nice and respectful to his family, [[SuddenlyShouting though he was prone to shouting]] [[LikeFatherLikeSon like his father.]] From Season 10 onwards, Kevin became far more rude, moody, case in point, he shot his mom with a "bolt" and when Bonnie used the incorrect term, he called her a dumbass.
