Misuse. The Robyn and Reuben one is a ZCE, the bit about Killgrave's tortures is too general and the one about Jessica and the young girl is just "I dont like this plot point." Someone trying to convince a child of their parents wrong-doing is Truth in television and a staple plot point of police procedurals. Nothing in the example states why the drama is so bad it makes the scene funny.
Deleted line(s) 1 (click to see context) :
* The way in which Kilgrave carries out his tortures is ''so over-the-top'' that it comes off as almost juvenile and becomes more hilarious rather than seriously horrific.

Deleted line(s) 11 (click to see context) :
* In the pilot of Season 3, Jessica responds to an Amber Alert, confronting, Mitch a man who took his daughter Cassie, away from their mother after losing custody. When Cassie refuses to leave, Jessica tries to convince her with full seriousness that her dad is "the bad guy". While Mitch did kidnap her under legal standards, he clearly loved his daughter and wanted her to be happy. It's laughable that Jessica thought Cassie would be inclined to agree with a total stranger.

* The show awkwardly avoids referencing the Avengers by name, presumably because bringing them up directly would clash with the DarkerAndEdgier tone, so we get stuff like [[Film/TheIncredibleHulk2008 "the big green guy"]] and [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger "the flag waver."]] Making it worse is that the series was released shortly after ''Series/{{Supergirl|2015}}'' attracted similar derision over its reluctance to refer to Superman by name in its pilot. Plus, the similarly dark ''Daredevil'' had no problem mentioning Cap by name (Foggy saying "I could call myself Captain America, doesn't put wings on my head"). This was thankfully dropped for Season 2, with Oscar's son Vido having a Captain America toy (though out of context, all references to Captain America are phrased in such a way that they could be construed as referring to him as a fictional character).

* When Jessica finally realizes that Kilgrave can’t control her anymore, she has flashbacks to the moments that prove this. This would have been legitimately epic if not for the ''heavy'' [[{{Overcrank}} slow-motion]] effects used during the sequence, which end up just making Kilgrave sound like he’s severely inebriated. “Lettttt goooooo oooooof meeeeee, Jessiiiiicaaaaa!”, “Getttt baaaaack heeeeereeee, Jesiiiicaaa!”, and “NOOOOOOOOWWWWWW, JESSIIIIIIIIICAAAAAAAA!” make these flashbacks too goofy-sounding to take seriously.

* One of Jessica's abilities is a limited form of flight/super jumping. This is represented by Jessica bending her knees and then cutting away to a "whoosh" sound effect. Due to the relatively low budget of the series, it's understandable that they can't show Jessica in full flight, but the absolute minimal effort put into these scenes looks even sillier than the latest seasons of ''Series/LoisAndClark'', in which Superman pretended to launch into flight by swinging his cape and moving to the side of the camera. At least in those scenes, people next to him had the habit of looking up when Superman did that.
