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.
A complete list of special guests follows.
Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, special and/or guests:
“Shea—they call him Scholar Jack—
Went down the list of the dead.
Officers, seamen, gunners, marines,
The crews of the gig and yawl,
The bearded man and the lad in his teens,
Carpenters, coal-passers—all.”
—Joseph I. C. Clarke (1846–1925)
“I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“In this century the writer has carried on a conversation with madness. We might almost say of the twentieth-century writer that he aspires to madness. Some have made it, of course, and they hold special places in our regard. To a writer, madness is a final distillation of self, a final editing down. It’s the drowning out of false voices.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“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)
