* ''[[How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (animation)|How the Grinch Stole Christmas]]'':
** {{spoiler|His heart grew three sizes that day}}!
** Every last Who down in Whoville, the tall and the small, were singing without any presents at all! [[The Grinch]] didn't stop Christmas from coming, it came! Somehow rather... it came just the same.
Line 186 ⟶ 187:
** Not to mention the elderly woman reuniting with her long dead lover, in a not-so-subtle shout out to [[Gone with the Wind]].
** One for Victor and Victoria: "Perhaps, under the circumstances -- you c-could call me -- Victoria." Their first meeting is so sweet.
** And one for Victor and Emily: "Pardon my enthusiasm." "I like your enthusiasm." They're adorable too. This movie is the reason I love [[One True Threesome|OT3]].
* The beginning of the Exodus in ''[[The Prince of Egypt]]'', when -- as part of the song "When You Believe" -- the departing Hebrew slaves burst into joyous song in their native tongue. Hm. Come to think of it, the ''whole'' of "When You Believe". One particularly powerful moment is when the Hebrews pass a couple of Egyptian guards, and the two men drop their spears and begin to walk along with the Hebrews.
** This Troper is always choked up by "Through Heaven's Eyes," chronicling Moses's courtship and eventual marriage of Tzipporah.
Line 194 ⟶ 195:
** Fievel finally finding his family. Even if you knew it was going to happen all along, there was not a dry eye in the theaters when it finally did.
{{quote|'''Fievel''': Papa...? Papa! I'm coming papa!}}
* Jim Davis has said that he created [[Garfield]] solely to make money, but [[Sylocat|this Troper]] maintains that the person who wrote ''A Garfield Christmas'' isn't a ''complete'' hack. First, they present the standard "true meaning of Christmas" Aesop in a more subtle, down-to-Earth way, instead of the cold, sterile [[Stock Phrase]]-laden [[Anvilicious|Anviliciousness]] of most Christmas specials. Garfield doesn't need to "[[A Christmas Carol|learn the true meaning of Christmas]]" or "[[How the Grinch Stole Christmas! (novel)|awaken some long-forgotten corner of his heart]]" or any of that, it's made plain that he knows it and agrees with it right from the start and he's just too sarcastic to say it out loud. But that's just a little thing; it's the final twist, where Garfield's present to Grandma is {{spoiler|her 50-year-old collection of her now-dead husband's love letters from when they were first courting, that Garfield found in a box in the barn while trying to figure out what Odie was making}}, that makes it brilliant.
* The [[Christmas Special]] ''[[The Town Santa Forgot]]'' tells the story of a greedy boy named Jeremy Creek who writes a really long letter to Santa, requesting every single toy he can think of. When Santa passes him by on Christmas Eve, he is greatly upset at first. The next morning, he finds out from a TV report that the toys he wanted were delivered to a poor swamp town that happens to have the same name as him (which Santa had forgotten to visit previously). When the kids in the swamp town say they want to say thanks to whoever wrote to Santa about them, it makes him feel better than any toy could and teaches him the joy of giving. And that is why ''The Town Santa Forgot'' is the best half-hour show to ever come from [[Hanna-Barbera]].
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRJohy5kN0Y This moment] in ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. "You're my mom, you're my dad, and you're my picket fence!"
Line 210 ⟶ 211:
** With their [[Right Through His Pants|jeans still on]], no less.
* ''[[Yellow Submarine]]'' is already on the Film section to the list, but here's another example: After "Nowhere Man", Jeremy Hillary Boob, Phd., has realized how lonely he is living in the middle of nowhere, and starts to break into sobs. The other Beatles make it perfectly clear that they just want to get going and leave him behind, but Ringo feels sorry for Jeremy and asks him to come along. Jeremy is so surprised that they'd accept a "nowhere man", and Ringo just seals the moment with one last pun: "Yeah, c'mon, we'll take you someplace."
* The scene near the end of the ''[[Cat DogCatDog]]'' [[Made for TV Movie]] "The Great Parent Mystery" definitly qualifies. After hitting another dead-end in their search, the ever cynical Cat shouts they are going home...only to be horrified when Dog agrees with him. The broken Dog gives up, ripping up his book of theories and admitting he wishes he gave up easier like his brother. Cat angrily tells him not to say that, admitting he wishes he were more like Dog, with boundless determination. They then make a vow to find their parents no matter what. Giving that Cat and Dog are usually [[Different As Night and Day]], the scene of brotherly love is very powerful.
* ''[[Sat AM Sonic the Hedgehog]]'': Whenever Tails calls Sally "Aunt Sally," I can't decide whether to smile at the sweetness of it or [[Tear Jerker|cry]] for these kids who have lost their parents and become a ragtag family who look out for each other and love each other so much.
** There's a quite poignant moment in one episode wherein Tails, clearly painted as the only "real" kid among the Freedom Fighters, befriends an animal, only to be told that it is supposed to be migrating and they have to take it back to its mother. Sonic, in his usual big brotherly fashion tries to break it to him by saying "he would miss his mommy." Tails' response? "I miss my mommy too." No flashbacks. No elaboration. No remark from Sonic. Just that small, somber line that reminds you of the evil dictator out there destroying everything he touches. It's [[Tear Jerker|heartbreaking]], but it does make it so much sweeter when he refers to Bunnie and Sally as "aunt". As far as the Freedom Fighters are concerned, they ARE all family.
Line 236 ⟶ 237:
''(They both embrace and cry)'' }}
* [[Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs|Just know that fishing metaphor means]] "I love my son."
* The ''[[Chalk ZoneChalkZone]]'' episode "Double Trouble" had a scene where Rudy was knocked out, and almost killed. Snap runs up to him and asks despretly if he's okay, almost on the verge of crying.
{{quote|'''Snap:''' RUDY! SAY SOMETHING!
'''Rudy:''' * awakens* What do you want me to say? * both smile* . }}
Line 250 ⟶ 251:
* One episode of ''[[Lloyd in Space]]'' shows a flashback to when Lloyd was a kid and had a crush on [[Alpha Bitch]] Brittany. In the flashback Brittany catches him carving "Lloyd loves Brittany" into a tree and he runs off crying. In the episode Brittany gets hit with a love beam that causes her to fall desperately in love with Lloyd but near the end of the episode she takes him to the tree with the initials and pulls the branches back to reveal she's written {{spoiler|Brittany loves Lloyd too}}.
