The only city that comes to mind is Queens, NY.

Well minor muppetz, I looked at imdb.com and according to them Roosevelt Franklin skits were from 1969-1972, Professor Hastings was from 1970 only (no wonder there weren't too many!), Herbert Birdsfoot skits were from 1970-1973, Little Bird was from 1970-1986 and 1990 (I would have thought that Little Bird was ended in the 70's but I guess Fran Brill, at least occasionally, continued to do more LB skits) and Harvey Kneeslapper was from 1970 to 197? . So some time in the 70's was the final HK skit. I would guess late 70's since they made quite a bit.

The last time I've seen HB and RF in an episode clip was 2002 (is that right?) in a sketch where they appeared at Bert's surprise party.

As for Little Bird, he has provided a few voiceless cameos in the 1980s and 1990s.

Bruno can be seen in the movie "Follow That Bird", but does not appear often. (And he'll probably never be seen again; according to Caroll Spinney, the guy inside Bruno, the puppet fell apart.) He can also be seen in the "Put Down the Duckie" special.

Oh, thanks for your help.

I never knew the puppet fell apart.

Just so everyone knows, because it is commonly forgotten or unknown, Little Bird is a GIRL. Just to remind everyone that refers to the character as a "he".

What about the "Grin and Giggle w/ Big Bird" album? There's a song called "Mr. Big Bird, Mr. Little Bird". I've never heard Little Bird referred to as a girl on the show.

I know that Little Bird's performer is female; never heard for sure that Little Bird is a "she" though.

Bart Simpson and Bobby Hill are both performed by women; as was Charlie Brown once.
