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:
“Do your children view themselves as successes or failures? Are they being encouraged to be inquisitive or passive? Are they afraid to challenge authority and to question assumptions? Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem? The answers to those questions will give you a better appraisal of their education than any list of courses, grades, or test scores.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“Thirty—the promise of a decade of loneliness, a thinning list of single men to know, a thinning brief-case of enthusiasm, thinning hair.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“He’s leaving Germany by special request of the Nazi government. First he sends a dispatch about Danzig and how 10,000 German tourists are pouring into the city every day with butterfly nets in their hands and submachine guns in their knapsacks. They warn him right then. What does he do next? Goes to a reception at von Ribbentropf’s and keeps yelling for gefilte fish!”
—Billy Wilder (b. 1906)
“Few enjoy noisy overcrowded functions. But they are a gesture of goodwill on the part of host or hostess, and also on the part of guests who submit to them.”
—Fannie Hurst (1889–1968)
