Best Cartoon Writers that Have Created an Animated Television Series for Cartoon Network

Cartoon Network has made a lot of good cartoons in its prime time. So I made this list counting down the best creators of animated television series that have been created by them for Cartoon Network. Feel free to vote or add more items to the list if you would like.
The Top Ten
1 Genndy Tartakovsky Genndy Tartakovsky is a Russian American animator, director, writer and producer. He is best known for creating the Cartoon Network animated television series Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack and Star Wars: Clone Wars, and co-creating Sym-Bionic Titan. In 2011, Tartakovsky joined Sony Pictures Animation, where he directed his feature film debut, Hotel Transylvania, and its sequel, Hotel Transylvania 2.

Samurai Jack is back with Season 5 on the Toonami block on Adult Swim. There are two things you should know. One, I can already tell this revival is going to be better than Teen Titans Go! and the 2016 reboot of The Powerpuff Girls. Two, things are definitely going to be more mature and intense in this new and final season of Samurai Jack.

The creator of Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack, Star Wars: Clone Wars. Also, he is the co-creator of Sym-Bionic Titan.

2 Craig McCracken Craig McCracken is an American animator, director and producer. He is best known for creating the Emmy-winning animated series The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends for Cartoon Network, as well as writing and storyboarding for Oscar's Oasis and Dexter's Laboratory in Kids' WB. His newest series, Wander Over Yonder, premiered on Disney Channel on August 16, 2013. He has been married to fellow animator Lauren Faust since 2004.

Friendly reminder that he created a Disney animated series to not only bring the show back, but somehow underrated.

He created the best show on Cartoon Network, The Powerpuff Girls, and when he is there, a lot of PPG episodes are very well written and good.

The creator of The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.

3 C.H. Greenblatt Carl Harvey "C. H." Greenblatt is an American cartoon screenwriter, producer, and storyboard artist. He has worked on the hit TV series SpongeBob SquarePants, and on the Cartoon Network's series The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Evil Con Carne. He is best known as the creator of Chowder, as well as Harvey Beaks.

He did not only create Chowder, which was good, but created Harvey Beaks, which was underrated.

HATE ME ALL YOU WANT! I hate C. H. Greenblatt! Grojband is a million times better than Chowder!

Freddy: don't forget harvey breaks
And no running in the halls.

Thank you for ruining thousands of children's lives with your crappy cancer known as Uncle Grandpa, Peter. Thank you.

Are you forgetting that he created Secret Mountain Fort Awesome?! That show was awful!

In my opinion, Uncle Grandpa sucks, but as for his other work, he's pretty decent.

Just for the record, I obviously didn't add this guy here.
