He makes an appearance in Mr. Monk and Mrs. Monk where he helps Monk make potato salad. He also was a fan of Max Hudson's program, and when Adrian Monk tried to investigate whether Max had any involvement in the death of Mrs. Hudson, Kevin Dorfman attempted to aid Monk when he tried to get on the air the second time (by supplying him with his grandpa's old jokes, including a few "red cards."). However, most of the jokes were outdated and didn't translate well into a radio program such as Hudson's show, although Kevin still got his kicks from the jokes, and even tried to support Monk on the air.
