This document summarizes different genres of entertainment including comedy, action, drama, and adventure. Comedy can be divided based on the source of humor, delivery method, and context. Action refers to what is happening in a story. Drama is a specific mode of fiction that is performed for an audience. Adventure stories involve danger and action outside the ordinary lives of protagonists and usually move quickly through a series of plot events.

1. Genres in Entertainment
Comedy
Comedy https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCn6qJivmMG66RH546B-a6Q may be
divided into multiple genres based on the source of humour, the method of delivery,
and the context in which it is delivered.
These classifications overlap, and most comedians can fit into multiple genres. For
example, deadpan comics often fall into observational boom comedy, or into black
comedy or blue comedy to contrast the morbidity, or offensiveness of the joke with a
lack of emotion.
Action
"Action is the mode [that] fiction writers use to show what is happening at any given
moment in the story," states Evan Marshall, who identifies five fiction-writing modes:
action, summary, dialogue, feelings/thoughts, and background. Jessica Page Morrell
lists six delivery modes for fiction-writing: action, exposition, description, dialogue,
summary, and transition. Peter Elgin refers to methods, including action, dialogue,
thoughts, summary, scene, and description.
Drama
Drama is the specific mode of fiction represented in performance: a play, opera,
mime, ballet, etc., performed in a theatre, or on radio or television. Considered as a
genre of poetry in general, the dramatic mode has been contrasted with the epic and
the lyrical modes ever since Aristotle's Poetics (c. 335 BC)—the earliest work of
dramatic theory.
The term "drama" comes from a Greek word meaning "action" (Classical Greek:
δρᾶμα, drama), which is derived from "I do" (Classical Greek: δράω, drao). The two
masks associated with drama represent the traditional genericdivision between
comedy and tragedy.
Adventure
An adventure is an event or series of events that happens outside the course of the
protagonist's ordinary life, usually accompanied by danger, often by physical action.
Adventure stories almost always move quickly, and the pace of the plot is at least as
important as characterization, setting and other elements of a creative work.
Adventure has been a common theme since the earliest days of written fiction.
Indeed, the standard plot of medieval romances was a series of adventures.
Following a plot framework as old as Heliodors, and so durable as to be still alive in
Hollywood movies, a hero would undergo a first set of adventures before he met his
lady. A separation would follow, with a second set of adventures leading to a final
reunion.
