Television and Film
In the early '90s, Matthews appeared as a contestant in a special edition of Win, Lose or Draw in which all the contestants were Chicago radio and television personalities. In 1994, Matthews appeared as a surfer in an episode of Baywatch entitled "I Spike". That same year, Matthews' alter-ego, Jim Shorts began hosting a show on the Chicago's SportsChannel America affiliate called The Jim Shorts Cavalcade of Sports (For You). The show was a send-up of sports clip shows, in which Jim had to recreate the plays with video games because—as he claimed—he couldn't get the rights to the footage. The show also featured notable guests, such as Johnny Kerr, but Kevin, as Kevin, didn't appear on this show during its run from 1994 to 1996. The same year this show launched, Matthews made a cameo appearance in the movie Blink during the scene on the train.

Famous quotes containing the words television and/or film:
“The technological landscape of the present day has enfranchised its own electorates—the inhabitants of marketing zones in the consumer goods society, television audiences and news magazine readerships... vote with money at the cash counter rather than with the ballot paper at the polling booth.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
“If you want to tell the untold stories, if you want to give voice to the voiceless, you’ve got to find a language. Which goes for film as well as prose, for documentary as well as autobiography. Use the wrong language, and you’re dumb and blind.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1948)
