New Trapped in the Closet !!! (Oh Shit!)

Rkellydoubleup My good friend Collin and I got very into the original "Trapped in the Closet" series by R. Kelly.  If you want my take on the series, you should read my original post about it.  To sum up, for those who aren't familiar with it, "Trapped in the Closet" is an exquisitely bad piece of "art" that is amazingly funny because R. Kelly was serious when he made it.  It must be seen to believe.

Well, now you CAN see the original and more.  Independent Film Channel will be airing new chapters 13-22 starting on August 13th.  I said, "One new chapter a day."  You'll say, "That's ten reasons to say,  Damn!!"  You can see a 2:00 recap of the original (oh shit!), and if you let the player cycle through (oh shit, oh shit), you can see all 12 original chapters (original chapters, original chapters).  Each episode is about 3-4 minutes long.  Be ready to invest some time, and that time best be long. 

If you have already seen the first few chapters, just skip it, and the next chapter will pop right up.  Or better yet, see all the episodes again.  They are just as not-fresh as the first time you saw them.

Thank you IFC for doing this.

Note:  The second paragraph of this entry uses five of the literary devices that R. Kelly uses in his work, including making a rhyme by using the same word twice, and simply not rhyming at all.  That's why it reads like I was high and dictating to a 6 year old.  Once you've watched the series again, you can sing the second paragraph.
