Just the way you think. The tragedies are depressing and end up sadly, whereas the comedies are funny, satirical and upbeat, and end well. Read Oedipus Rex and Lysistrata to see what I mean--they are both great plays.
Tragedies and Comedies
The style of Greek plays are tragedies and comedies. Hoped that helped!!! ;)

Comedies and tragedies. Comedies and tragedies.
Greek tragedy
Aristophanes wrote comedies, not tragedies. The three greatest playwrights of Ancient Greece whose work survives were Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides.
One is sad. There other isn't sad.
Tragedies did not drift into comedies. The were performed at separate festivals: the tragic in the spring and the comic in the winter.
They would see Greek and Romans tragedies and comedies and Roman satire.
