Behind the scenes
- Tartakovsky is a Star Wars fan, which was the reason why George Lucas invited him to create the Star Wars: Clone Wars miniseries in 2003.
- He cites the cartoons of Bob Clampett, Tex Avery, and Chuck Jones as one of his influences of his works.[1] His love for Hanna-Barbera's old cartoons was another influence of his works,[1] although when he got access to watch the tapes of their shows at his job on Cartoon Network, he found them to be too corny for him to enjoy as an adult the same way as he did when he was a child.
- Back when they were working on Dexter's Laboratory, Craig McCracken had put a quote on Genndy's office door that said "Make the cartoons we thought we watched as kids".[2]
