Takeoffs (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

parodies

'takeoffs' is the definition.
('parody' can be a synonym of 'takeoff')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for parodies that I've seen before include "Do aspire to comic imitations" , "Spoofs, lampoons" , "They take off" , "Sends up" , "Comic travesties" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
