CS: A Cautionary Tale of Stardom...


It's the late 1980's, & with the success of films such as, " Pump Up the Volume ", and " Heathers ", CS is one of the hottest young stars in the world, the consummate suave bad boy heir-apparent to Jack Nicholson-And, it should also be noted, a talented actor.

2014: CS has now had his 4th (Fourth) TV show cancelled in the past 6 (Six) years.

So why is that some hot young actors actually stay hot over the years, and others don't?

Why is it that Johnny Depp commands millions per film these days, while Richard Grieco, who starred with Depp on the ' 21 Jump Street 'series-also in the late '80's-is now relegated to B-List Made For TV Movies?

I honestly don't know the answer myself.

But whatever the reason, for anyone with dreams of being a ' Star ', it is a Cautionary Tale.

Well I hope that the answer is something OTHER THAN, " 3 guys in a Hollywood basement forcing others to perform sex acts... "
