I think that Bill's hero worship is, like MyTatuo said, a mix of what Josie and Claye said. I think he knew Winslow, so was not as put out by him whereas Cobb was the opposite and someone he loved to watch play, but didn't know. To me, Bill was portrayed accurately. After all, every episode of hero worship came from SJC himself...the man who put the touches on Bill. I think that HEROES was a first-rate SLAP of what can happen with personal hero worship and THE PRICE IS RIGHT was the SLAP of it happening to an idol you don't know...done on both ends of the spectrum, but still having Bill come out on top. As for Bill being more cartoony, I don't know if I agree with that, but I will say that he was more relaxed around Ralph, as he SHOULD be by the end of the third season, so naturally, the audience should SEE him as more relaxed. Look to another TV example: If you see the movie STARGATE, Kurt Russell plays it very flat...but the TV show has Richard Dean Anderson making jokes and the like and that makes it realistic. To me, Bill was never unrealistic in his depiction by the writers. Finally, the lying bit in SATURDAY ON SUNSET...why does he CARE what people who AREN'T paying attention think? That is pointless. He could have hung up the phone and proudly said that it was a deal. That would have given the same successful vibe. As for what the "others" thought, had they been paying attention, they would have saw him sweating bullets the whole time, so obviously NOT dealing from strength.

Whoa!
I was already allowed entrance and anointed you said!!
I've been placing dog biscuits and fishing worms by the altar for days, now. (Yeah, the decomposing worms are that odd shrine stench you've noticed).

Yes, but since I don't have an avatar of you to use, well....
(Um.... errr.... uh.... Is this excuse working at all?? Sorry... my bad... I just love teasing Billswoman, giving her a hard time. She was my first real competition after all...)
Oh, Billswoman, there is a problem here. It used to be just you and me vying for Bill. Now there are these two young upstarts, trying to needle their way in.... what shall we do? what shall we do?

Well, I'm not so young, but "upstart", absolutely. ;-)
Yup, Jo and Billswoman are going to have a fight on their hands in the line for sexual favors from Bill Maxwell. I'm petite, true, but I'm pretty quick and athletic and ages ago got that black belt in karate. So, I'm pretty confident I'm going to be #1 in line.

Huh, I guess I accidentally cleared the 'barroom' of sorts here with my shoe comment. Maybe I should try for my second degree belt in penny loafers now.

Snort. Better than a very long one with just about everything you talk about as one. (though I have to admit, it's quite funny regardless). And, at least no one's turning the bluebonnets into elephants.

Oh-ho! So, now we see the real Jo behind the Billboards. Two timing it with some character from the A-team, eh, even to the extent of changing your name to his iconic nature? Well, we know that what Bill honors most, in all the world and beyond this world, is LOYALTY. No two timers for him! I shall therefore step in, show him your banners combining him with Murdock, and then show him my unchanging picture of him under my name, and he shall be MINE forever.
Geez, just when you found someone to stand beside you in an alley, fighting to uphold the beauty and wonder of Agent Maxwell, they go and jump ship to another character....life is full of disappointment and disillusionment....sniff...sniff...yes, Bill, do hold me tightly....Jo was such a good fan of yours once....we shared such thoughts of you....yes, it's all gone now....yes, undoing my bra is helping....whoa baby!, that is REALLY helping....Jo who?....never heard of her....

One person's two timing is another person's menage.
I mean, even though Bill says he's not into sharing, well, it's probably just one of those little white ones. 'Cause man oh man, I got news for ya... he shares just fine in the things that matter. **wink wink**
Oh, yeah. As far as HD's remark, I agree...

Howling Mad vs Wild Bill
I actually think that H. M. Murdock has a lot in common with Wild Bill Maxwell. Maybe this was part of SJC's plan.
You know, like how Data in Star Trek was supposed to be like Spock? I think that H. M. had a little bit of the Maxwell in the mix...
