He is an American voice actor, animator, television writer, producer and director. He is best known as the creator of the Cartoon Network series ‘Regular Show’, in which he also voiced the characters Mordecai and High Five Ghost. 2.My name is J.G. Quintel, and I’m the creator of ‘The Regular Show’. I grew up watching cartoons especially‘The Simpsons’, I didn’t miss an episode at all.‘The Simpsons’ was the one that my friends and I were quoting constantly. 3.I really liked drawing, and I liked art. For as long as I can remember, I never wanted to be anything else. When I found out that it’s actually something people do for a living, I decided that I wanted to do that. So I went to college, and now I’m doing it. 4.In school you had to make a film every year.So, I made a film that had Mordecai in itand Benson in it. And it really was like how we acted in school. All the “uuuh!” and “Hmm, hmm!Hmm!hmm!”, that is just me and my friends being idiots.Because of the animation, you can do anything. So, they could have been human but that would be kind of boring. All the characters from my films are not what they happen to be. If you get past the fact that Benson is a gumball machine, or that Pops is a lollipop, they are just normal people hanging out.
