Comedy

Comedy is a genre of literature, film, and performance that aims to entertain and amuse audiences through humorous content. It often involves the use of satire, exaggeration, incongruity, and clever dialogue to provoke laughter. Comedy can take various forms, including stand-up routines, sitcoms, sketches, and comedic films. The essence of comedy often lies in its ability to explore the absurdities of life, relationships, and human behavior while providing a sense of relief or escapism.

Traditionally, comedic works feature a range of character archetypes and situations that lead to humorous conflicts or misunderstandings, ultimately resolving in a positive or uplifting manner. Comedy can also serve as a social commentary, addressing cultural or societal issues through wit and humor.
