 * Crowning Moment of Funny: Almost every Crowning Moment of Awesome qualifies as one.

 * Jerkass Woobie:.
 * Hell, all of the alters become this in season 3, after spending 20 years of Tara's life and the last 2 seasons being the defining burden keeping her from a normal life, we see the sympathetic sides of them...

 * The end of Abundance. Alice believing she was pregnant was treated as a silly annoyance that Max and the others simply humor her with. But it stops being funny once she has an emotional breakdown after she believes she has had a miscarriage, as Max tries in vain to console her.

 * In season 3,
 * Too Good to Last: Although it did last much longer than others that fit in this trope.
 * The Woobie: Tara and Marshall are very easy to feel sympathy for with their respective mental health and romantic struggles. In the second season, Pammy the bartender could also qualify, being a single mother.
 * And recently Pammy.
