Spy comedy is a subgenre of comedy that combines elements of espionage with humor. It often features secret agents or spies who find themselves in absurd situations, blending action and comedy. The plots typically involve espionage missions gone wrong, mistaken identities, and quirky characters, creating a lighthearted take on the serious world of spying. This genre has produced popular films and television shows, such as Austin Powers and Get Smart. These works often parody traditional spy tropes, using witty dialogue and slapstick humor to entertain audiences while poking fun at the conventions of the spy genre.
