Several funny shows (7)
I believe the answer is:
reveals
'shows' is the definition.
('reveal' can be a synonym of 'show')
'several funny' is the wordplay.
'funny' indicates anagramming the letters.
'several' with letters rearranged gives 'REVEALS'.
(Other definitions for reveals that I've seen before include "Unmasks" , "Several (anag)" , "Shows" , "Exposes" , "Discloses" .)
