How do you go from “Charles in Charge” to overcharged? From “Eight is Enough” to not having enough to avoid foreclosure? From minor celebrity to major drug addict? “Broke and Famous” (10 p.m., VH1), offers a profile of actor Willie Aames, a teen star of the 1970s and ’80s who bottomed out after stabs at rehab and born-again Christianity.
Aames’ case came to media attention when he held an estate/yard sale last spring to raise money to save his house. Aames is also a veteran of “Celebrity Fit Club” numbers 2 and 6, and the co-author of “Grace Is Enough,” with his ex-wife Maylo Upton-Aames. Shortly before attempting suicide last Thanksgiving, Aames had been acting in a series of religious videos called “Bibleman.”
