Entertaiment is the broad category of experiences that provide amusement, diversion or recreation. It includes activities such as humor, drama, suspense and spectacle. Entertainment is generally understood to be escapist in nature and can serve as a way for people to relax or escape from the stresses of everyday life. It also can be a means of exploring new ideas and perspectives or connecting with others. Its ability to cross media has ensured that many of the familiar forms of entertainment are continually recycled and re-imagined.
