Out on DVD: Dirt on Celine Trapped in the Closet with doggie porn

There's a veritable smorgasboard of campy DVD titles out today that might be of interest
to you, or the perfect stocking stuffer for a friend or pet.

The FX series Dirt returns for its sophomore season in January and just in time for new viewers to catch up is this boxed set release of Season 1. The show itself was a bit uneven last year, but it did offer a few delights. Among them is Grant Show as a closeted movie star getting down and dirty with Leo Spiller (Will McCormack). The boy certainly has come a long way from Melrose Place.

Also out, you can finally get R. Kelly's Trapped in the Closet R&B opera — all 22 chapters of it — on one DVD. Collectively the chapters tell the story of a one-night stand that sets off a chain of events "revealing a web of lies and deceit." Some of those lies involve certain characters "on the down low."

The front of the box says, "it's the big package," but that may not in fact be true. Kelly claims to have another 20 chapters written and yet to be released. Oh for goodness sake, come out of the closet already!

Are you a Zac Efron fan? Oh come on admit it. You know you are. Well you can see him gamely returning to the franchise that made him a teen heartthrob and breakout star in High School Musical 2: Extended Edition. And no doubt in a few months Disney will be releasing the "director's cut" of this cash cow franchise.

Of keener interest to me is the DVD release of a 1996 Lifetime original movie, Seduced by Madness...

Ann-Margret, Peter Coyote, Tobey Maguire and Christian Campbell star in this true crime story of a Wisconsin teacher's aide who hired teenaged students to murder her estranged husband. (This one sounds a lot like To Die For.) Not exactly gay interest, but certainly high camp as Margret vamps it up in her shoulder pads an pearls - drawing her mesmerized students into her murderous plot.

For all you Celine Dion fans, her Vegas show, A New Day is now out on DVD. And for you David Hyde Pierce fans, the tenth season of Frasier is now available. Ironically, they released the eleventh (and final) season on DVD way back in 2004. So with the release of this 10th season boxed set you can finally complete your Frasier collection.

Last on our list of DVDs out today — the perfect stocking stuffer for your pooch. (I just wish we'd included in our holiday gift guide over on the main page.) Dog-On Television is described as a video companion for your pet while you are away. The DVD autoplays on a loop and includes footage of dogs barking, playing, running. My only concern? My dog might feel like a couch potato watching it.

Still, sounds like a great idea for single dogs who are stuck at home alone while their owners are at work. Anyway, sure beats subjecting them to regular daytime TV — ATWT's Luke & Noah notwithstanding!
