The New Zealand animated television series bro'Town frequently features special guests - notable celebrities from politics, art, culture, music, the media, business and sport. For the most part, these cameos depict the celebrities as themselves, often saying a catchphrase for which they are notable.
The most regular cameos are John Campbell and Carol Hirschfeld, former newsreaders on TV3 (the same network that bro'Town is screened on). John and Carol are usually depicted as television news anchor and television reporter respectively. Former All Black and Manu Samoa player Michael Jones is the only special guest who could be considered a member of the core cast, as he is the P.E. teacher at St Sylvester's. Former New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark and Hip hop rapper Scribe have also been guests on all five seasons of bro'Town to date.
Most special guests have been New Zealanders, however some notable overseas guests have featured such as Rove McManus and Charles, Prince of Wales.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, special and/or guests:
“A man’s interest in a single bluebird is worth more than a complete but dry list of the fauna and flora of a town.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“Beauty, like all other qualities presented to human experience, is relative; and the definition of it becomes unmeaning and useless in proportion to its abstractness. To define beauty not in the most abstract, but in the most concrete terms possible, not to find a universal formula for it, but the formula which expresses most adequately this or that special manifestation of it, is the aim of the true student of aesthetics.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“The menu was stewed liver and rice, fricassee of bones, and shredded dog biscuit. The dinner was greatly appreciated; the guests ate until they could eat no more, and Elisha Dyer’s dachshund so overtaxed its capacities that it fell unconscious by its plate and had to be carried home.”
—For the State of Rhode Island, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
