[edit] Charmed

Kern was hired as the showrunner when the presentation pilot was sold to series, and shared the job of executive producer of Charmed with the show's creator Constance M. Burge for the first two seasons. Burge left the series after the fourth season leaving Kern as the sole producer through the end of the series. At the end of the series, he overtook ownership of the "Hero" version of the Book of Shadows. This version was the main and most complete one, pivotal to the shooting of the series usually kept under lock and key. The other prop versions were sold in auction. He and Holly Marie Combs were both candidates for who would keep the Book, but he won due to his argument stating the fact that he himself had written most of it.
