The former Supernatural star, who joined Alba's 2000-2002 Fox sci-fi series toward the end of Season 1, made his comments on the Inside of You With Michael Rosenbaum podcast. "I love Jess, which I know kind of contradicts what I just said," Ackles told Rosenbaum. "She was under an immense amount of pressure on that show. She was young, she was in a relationship with one of the guys (co-star Michael Weatherly), and that was rocky and causing some undue stress, I believe, on set." Ackles added: "I was the new kid on the block, and I got picked on by the lead. Like the worst kind of bickering a brother and sister could do. She had it out for me. It wasn't that she didn't like me. She just was like, 'Oh, here's the pretty boy that network brought in for some more window dressing because that's what we all need.'"
