Romantic Comedy
Romantic comedy (also known as romcom or rom-com) is a sub-genre of comedy and Romance novel, romance fiction, focusing on lighthearted, humorous plot lines centered on romantic ideas, such as how true love is able to surmount all obstacles. Romantic comedy evolved from Ancient Greek comedy, Middle Ages, medieval romance, and 18th-century Restoration comedy, later developing into sub-genres like Screwball comedy, screwball comedies, career woman comedies, and 1950s Sex comedy, sex comedies in Hollywood.
