Question

What is the definition of satirical comedy? I've been looking everywhere online for like an hour now, and I cannot find this definition.

Answer 1

A comedy that includes satirical elements.

Explanation:

There are several possible meanings of "comedy". To be definite, here is the one that appeared first when I used Google to search "comedy definition": It gives "noun -- a play, movie, television program, novel, etc., that is meant to make people laugh"

And "satirical definition" yields "adjective -- containing or using satire"

So satirical comedy is noun -- a play, movie, television program, novel, etc., containing or using satire, that is meant to make people laugh.

If you need a definition of 'satire" you might use (again from Google) "noun -- the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues"
