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:
“Love’s boat has been shattered against the life of everyday. You and I are quits, and it’s useless to draw up a list of mutual hurts, sorrows, and pains.”
—Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930)
“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)
“The books may say that nine-month-olds crawl, say their first words, and are afraid of strangers. Your exuberantly concrete and special nine-month-old hasn’t read them. She may be walking already, not saying a word and smiling gleefully at every stranger she sees. . . . You can support her best by helping her learn what she’s trying to learn, not what the books say a typical child ought to be learning.”
—Amy Laura Dombro (20th century)
“When her guests were awash with champagne and with gin,
She was recklessly sober, as sharp as a pin.
An abstemious man would reel at her look,
As she rolled a bright eye and praised his last book.”
—William Plomer (1903–1973)
