Bill (Fat Albert)

William "Bill" Henry Cosby Jr. is a member of the Junkyard Gang, and Russell's older brother. In the Junkyard Band, he plays the drums (made from a foot-petal trashcan and a metal box) As his name suggests, he is an animated version of the series' creator, Bill Cosby. (although the real Bill Cosby himself is a live-action narrator)

Personality

 * Young Bill was kept in the background for the most part, giving the other kids more prominence. The real life Bill Cosby probably felt he had a large enough role as the host of the show to start with. Like Fat Albert, Bill is usually a straightforward, level headed voice of reason in the gang, although at times a little more stubborn. As the older brother of Russell, he is often trying to keep his smart-mouthed little brother out of trouble, though not always successfully. But overall his presence was pretty reduced.
 * He was shown to be the biggest fan of The Brown Hornet of the group, and even played the titular hero in the gang's homemade production of a Brown Hornet episode for a contest.

Appearance

 * Bill is an African-American teenager based on Bill Cosby, when he was younger.
 * He wears a white long-sleeve shirt, blue pants, and white sneakers with blue circles on each side.
 * In the movie, Bill's shirt is now light blue with a picture of the Brown Hornet, and his shoes are now black and white.

Trivia
