The good entertainment

Even though there are many kinds of entertainment and it is hard to choose the good, we can select some of them. There are some characteristics that determine the quality of entertainment. First, It must have values. Nowadays, many films have violence in the scenes and much music contains meaningless lyrics. There are no advantages to watch or hear these. In contrast, some films and music inspire and help people around to do better things because they have universal values.
Second, controlled entertaintment is a limited entertainment that can prevent us to be addictive. The negative effect from excessive entertainment is we can forget everything else and only satisfy ourselves. The good entertainment should have a mechanism to ensure people still have time to do other things by creating session break. This way will make the entertainment enjoyable because people will wait. Not only the entertainment itself but also people must have good self control to manage the entertainment.
Finally, the entertainment should add new knowledge. People should not waste their time to the same added value. We will get advantages from entertainment that always gives new knowledge. For example, when i saw National Geographic Channel, besides i entertained, i also got new knowledge about Green Environment.

We must select entertainment to make our life happier. The best entertainment will make our time meaningful and useful because there are so many new things that we will get.
