Entertainment is a form of recreation that removes individuals from their everyday reality by providing pleasant experiences. It can include any type of activity that provides enjoyment, relaxation, diversion or pleasure and can be achieved through a variety of forms such as art, music, film, sports, games, social activities or other public events. Oliver and Barstsch (2010) define Entertainment as an activity that is understood objectively, involves communication between text and audience from an external stimulus, offers pleasure and requires a passive audience. They also note that Entertainment often hits on the points in life that humans were evolved to deeply react to, such as backstabbing and murders.
