Entertaiment is a broad category of activities intended to provide amusement, delight, and enjoyment. It includes anything from a personal choice of pre-recorded entertainment for oneself to performances and spectacles designed to entertain many. Its familiar forms have a tendency to cross over different media, and are often able to be remixed creatively, thus ensuring the longevity of many themes and images. It is also a powerful force that can bring joy, stimulate learning, or even provoke negative reactions if not properly regulated.
