Sažetak
One of a general and in a relatively indefinite way asked questions, inspired by common expectations of contemporary media, is a question of its influence on recipients, consumers and users of media tools and services, especially in the field of entertainment. From a traditional point of view, media should inform, educate, but also to entertain. Sometimes, these functions are merged, but on the other hand, media specialized for a specific types of programs - such are informative programs, artistic contents, sports, etc., are not rare, which is, per example, a common practice in a TV industries. Following this specialization, entertainment is very often seen as a product of a special kind of industry - industry of entertainment. But in the scope of this industry, no entertainment, without strong commercial foundations, is possible. Hence, it seems that so called industry of entertainment, which is defined in the scope of creative industries, does not fulfill its common function. Under such circumstances, entertainment turns to nothing more than commercial good. In other words, entertainment becomes one dimensional pool for spending money and time. With a series of interactions which offers, world of entertainment transforms itself into its opposite - humdrum. Humdrum becomes other name for a time of “joy” and “entertainment”, an emptiness which like abyss devours all media forms and contents of our time with no any difference.
