Comedy is a type of drama intended to amuse audiences. It focuses on society and features happy endings, stereotypical characters, and situations where the audience understands what will happen before the characters do. There are several types of comedy, including romantic comedy about young lovers uniting, comedy of humours based on beliefs about bodily humors, satirical comedy exposing society's flaws, and comedy of manners focusing on upper and middle class social intrigue. The objective of comedy is to amuse rather than make audiences cry, and it features characters drawn from everyday life rather than those with superior social standing.
