Tension grew between the producers (Barrie Dunn and Mike Volpe) and Jackson due to working conditions and creative disagreements.

Jackson gave notice that he would leave the show after season 6, as he was close friends with the series' creator Mike Clattenburg.

Cory Bowles returned for Season 8 as part of the show's Netflix reboot and has since appeared in each following season, with Jacob Rolfe's Jacob Collins character filling Jackson's role as Cory's sidekick, as Jackson declined to return to the show.

In season eight, Cory explained that he and Trevor were exploring the world, but got separated on a subway train in New York City.
