Summary/Abstract: According to the data from the Communications Regulatory Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina, entertaining programme constitutes a quarter of all TV stations broadcast (24.9%) and more than half of radio stations broadcast (53.66%). The content analysis of television programmes of three public broadcasters (BHT 1, RTRS, FTV) as well as two commercial TV stations with nationwide coverage (TV Hayat and TV BN) in prime time (from 17 to 23 hours) on weekly base, based on the review of the programmes, showed that entertainment is one of the most important segments of television programmes, on both commercial TV stations, as well as public service in BiH. Qualitative analysis of Grand Show, that stands for the one of the most popular music and entertainment shows, not only in BiH, but wider, for almost two decades, indicates that this show belongs to kitsch culture. Furthermore, certain similarities between reality show programs like Big Brother or Farm and french Theatre of the absurd were found.
