** The dialogue and line delivery can feel awkward (ex. "You've got a baby in there!") and forced/on-the-nose (ex. Beast Boy's talk of starting a "revolution" with the Outsiders' debut and then Gaby also calling them a "revolution" by pure coincidence, the {{Call Back}}s to well-known Season 1 lines such as "Get whelmed.", etc.). Not helped with the more blatant use of TalkingToHimself which can create some flat deliveries after repetitive use (as well as [[NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent inaccurate attempts at accents]] for international characters) and the animation sometimes failing to properly convey the emotions behind these lines.

Young Justice is known for being a very mature show grounded in reality. With that said, it doesn't always hit it out of the park when it gets a bit ''too'' serious. Here are the most notable examples that could be listed here.
* Seasons 1-2:
** Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent are in a diner discussing Superboy and Clark's refusal to act as the father figure that the boy desperately needs. It's a fine scene... up until Clark leaves and angrily tells the waiter that he'll have the apple pie he just ordered to go. Pie is not well known for being appropriately dramatic.
*** That entire scene could count for some. It's literally [[FanNickname The World's Finest]] [[HoYay Bromance]] having an argument over custody. This exchange pretty much says it all.
--> '''[[Franchise/{{Batman}} Bruce]]''': The boy needs his father.
--> '''[[Franchise/{{Superman}} Clark]]''': [[ThatThingIsNotMyChild I'm not his father!]]
** Superboy's over-emotional feral screaming in a lot of the early episodes (especially in ''Bereft''), while not being ''totally'' uncalled for given his pre-character-development personality, can become rather silly and over the top.
** The PunctuatedForEmphasis example at the end of "The Hunt" [[spoiler: You're. Off. The Team]] may have been a ''bit'' overdramatic...
** From the same finale Superman's "good job kid" moment to Superboy may also be this, given the lack of characterization on the former's part, consequently causing the scene to fall flat and feel like an empty gesture.
** Superman trying to corral the ugly little alien invaders into their ship so he could fly them away from the exploding island in ''Alienated'' feels too forced (and comes too late in the series) to be genuinely convincing as an act of selfless compassion on his part. Superboy saying that Superman will be more upset to learn he couldn't save the ugly little alien invaders just makes it even more of an InformedAttribute.
** Where's Waldo? is known as "Where's Wally?" outside the US and Canada. When [[spoiler:Wally dies, and Artemis' reaction is an anguished "Where's Wally?!", it can... undercut the drama.]]
* Season 3:
** The dialogue and line delivery can feel awkward (ex. "You've got a baby in there!") and forced/on-the-nose (ex. Beast Boy's talk of starting a "revolution" with the Outsiders' debut and then Gaby also calling them a "revolution" by pure coincidence, the {{Call Back}}s to well-known Season 1 lines such as "Get whelmed.", etc.). Not helped with the more blatant use of TalkingToHimself which can create some flat deliveries after repetitive use (as well as [[NotEvenBotheringWithTheAccent inaccurate attempts at accents]] for international characters) and the animation sometimes failing to properly convey the emotions behind these lines.
** Violet's shift from perfectly well-behaved to sudden misconduct after learning she is [[spoiler: dying]] is a bit jarring, as it all occurs in the span of a single day/episode and she isn't even fully informed on the situation (specifically, the likelihood Jace could find a solution to fix it, which she mentions is possible). It would have been far less of an issue if it had been built-up in a previous episode.
** "I think my water broke just now". Granted, it's not an alarming experience for many women, but it's still a very casual thing to say.
** Granny Goodness's facial expressions and dialogue in "Unknown Factors" vacillate between this and NarmCharm. On the one hand, she gets weird fish eyes and stereotypical frowns and some of her threats are downright ridiculous coupled with some wooden acting[[note]]"I had my fun"[[/note]]... and at no point do you lose the sense that she is a crazy, murderous, sadistic abuser.
** When Superboy discovers M'gann's involvement in the Anti-Light, he's uncharacteristically silent throughout the whole episode. When he and M'gann are later seen arguing telepathically, their argument is shown through Cyborg and Forager's perspective; they're both flailing and wildly gesturing, all the while without saying a single word.
** One plotline in the later parts of the season is the Outsiders getting into a war of public opinion with Luthor, each side trying to win acclaim through their heroic deeds to win the hearts and minds of the public. Fine on paper, but it is hard to take scenes like Luthor grinning evilly because his superhero team is getting more Likes than the Outsiders seriously.
** The second half of Season 3 has used freeze-frame montages in place of proper animation multiple times. By the second or third time this happens, it starts to feel less like a stylistic choice and more due to budget constraints.
** While it is ''extremely'' cathartic to see Lex Luthor get some comeuppance and [[spoiler: lose his position as Secretary-General,]] his attempts to push back on the (true) accusations by simply [[spoiler: parroting well-known "arguments" and counterpunches of [[UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump a certain prominent American figure]][[note]]Right down to even saying "fake news" verbatim]][[/note]] can across as very silly (and downright nonsensical; 'international libel laws' are ''not'' a thing, libel laws are set by each country) and as a tad absurd given he's been shown to be ''far'' more intelligent than this. Simply put, they could've just let Luthor fail in his own defense and take the defeat without using pointless topical references.
*** Indeed, Luthor throughout the entire season suffers from a severe case of derailment from his David Xanatos-esque personality[[note]]While also serving as CharacterRerailment due to some aspects of his character more closely resembling his comics counterpart[[/note]], to simply being a thinly-veiled caricature of said prominent American figure which reeks of WriterOnBoard, especially for those who were fans of his earlier character.
