Scary Funny is a hilarious new show on Comedy Central Now that blends elements of traditional sketch comedy with horror and supernatural themes. Each episode takes place in an eerie abandoned mansion, where a group of hapless comedians find themselves trapped and forced to perform a series of spooky skits for a mysterious audience.

The show is hosted by a creepy but comical character named Mr. Grim (played by veteran comedian Bob Saget), who guides the performers through various twisted scenarios and introduces each segment with a macabre monologue. The other cast members include a mix of up-and-coming comics and seasoned pros, all of whom bring their unique comedic styles to the table.

One of the standout features of Scary Funny is its inventive use of horror tropes to elicit laughs. For example, in one sketch, a group of teenagers sneak into the mansion to investigate a supposed ghost, only to find that the "ghost" is actually a bag of old clothes being moved by a drafty window. In another segment, Mr. Grim hires a pair of unsuspecting street performers to put on a "magic" show for his audience, only to reveal that their tricks were all accomplished through gruesome means.

The show also features a number of recurring characters who add to the overall comedic dynamic. These include a bumbling ghost hunter who always manages to make matters worse; a creepy ventriloquist whose dummy seems to have a life of its own; and a pair of inept maintenance workers who are constantly breaking things and causing chaos.

In addition to the sketch comedy segments, Scary Funny also includes plenty of audience interaction and participation. Viewers can submit their own spooky stories and suggestions for future sketches, as well as vote on which characters they want to see more of. There are also plenty of opportunities for fans to engage with the show on social media, with live-tweeting and Q&A sessions with the cast and crew.

Overall, Scary Funny is an innovative and highly entertaining addition to the Comedy Central Now lineup. With its unique blend of humor and horror, it offers a fresh take on traditional sketch comedy and is sure to make audiences both laugh and shiver with delight.
