I don't actively dislike him in the role, but he doesn't seem to have any true excitement for it or something. I think he seems more natural on the preshow panels etc.

I thought he was better off as an interviewer.
It gets really uncomfortable when Graves goes off on him during commentary, making Patrick sound timid every time.

A lot of his excitement just feels a little forced. I don't think he really adds anything right now. Definitely preferred Jimmy Smith.

Definitely liked Jimmy Smith much better. Maybe they can just get Tom Phillips back or bring up Vic Joseph.

Honestly like him a lot more than Jimmy Smith and Adnan Virk. I think he brings a refreshing perspective, style and voice to commentary and his chemistry with Graves is better than Graves had with Byron or Smith.

I loved dude as an interviewer and was happy for him to get this spot but I don't like him as a lead guy at all. Dude has the same problem Jimmy Smith did where he's just this happy guy with nothing interesting to say except he's a much worse announcer than Jimmy so it sticks out more.
Cole/Barrett and Vic/Booker have both ended up being great pairings on commentary too so RAW's current team of Death & Taxes stands out bad.

He's alright. I don't really notice him much.

I'm glad to see some positive thoughts on Kevin Patrick. I don't like seeing all of the negativity about him on social media. Since I am one of the few people that actually watch Main Event, I have been there since the beginning of his WWE Commentary career. He & Byron Saxton are great together on Main Event. And I haven't had a problem with him & Corey Graves on Raw. A lot of people have said that he's a horrible commentator. There have been worse. Triple H wouldn't have picked him to be on Raw if he didn't think he could do the job.

Dude just kinda seems like the new Byron for Corey to bully because he likes things, and frankly, it makes everything a chore to listen to.

I get taken out of Raw when Corey does his usual "shut UP, [announcer name]!!!!" dipshit bit and Kevin Patrick's just like "Oh " like stop bullying this poor man

I like Kevin Patrick. He's got a unique style of commentating and he can pull off the exciting moments.

Neither him nor Jimmy really do it for me. I'd like just Corey and Saxton in the booth.
