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 was fired by Kern in the second season. 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.

Famous quotes containing the word charmed:
“At first, he savored only the material quality of the sounds secreted by the instruments. And it had already been a great pleasure when, beneath the tiny line of the violin, slender, resistant, dense and driving, he noticed the mass of the piano’s part seeking to arise in a liquid splashing, polymorphous, undivided, level and clashing like the purple commotion of wave charmed and flattened by the moonlight.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care;
They pursued it with forks and hope;
They threatened its life with a railway-share
They charmed it with smiles and soap.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“It has always been thought perfectly womanly to be a scrub- woman in the Legislature and to take care of the spittoons; that is entirely within the charmed circle of woman’s sphere; but for women to occupy any of those official seats would be degrading.”
—Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
