Heartwarming / Up On The Shelf

  • Shelf's excitement at learning her second review is a favorite of hers that's far too overlooked. She expresses it with this clip of GIR that says it all [1].
  • The alternate ending to Chitty Chitty Bang Bang that the Baron weaves, revealing Truly Scrumptious was really Mary Poppins in disguise looking out for Bert (who moved out to the country under the name Caracatus) and his children. She reveals herself after Caracatus proposes, meaning those who shipped Mary Poppins and Bert like Shelf can get a happy ending for them at last. To top it all off, Shelf concludes the review by sharing Dick Van Dyke and his acapella group doing an impressive rendition of the title song. Seeing him going strong even in his 90's is always heartwarming.
  • Baron Munchausen coaxing Shelf out of her depressed state in her "Weirdmageddon Part 2" review. As the review wraps up he reveals why he's stuck with her for so long - because she gave his movie a chance when no one else did.
  • Shelf's sheer joy at Tiger showing up in the American Tail review. She goes on to share just how much the character means to her, with special regards to his voice actor, Dom De Luise.
  • If you look at Shelf and Cynicism's relationship carefully, you can see them grow from loathing each other to tolerating the other's presence, to something resembling a friendship. They also seem to have rubbed off of each other a little, with Shelf being less afraid to speak up if she doesn’t like something and Cynicism acting a little nicer to everyone.
  • After opening up about being emotionally manipulated by her boyfriend, and the depression and anxiety brought on by the aftermath of the 2016 election, it seems Shelf has finally gotten the help she needs to cope AND is with someone much better now.
  • After her voters picked Toy Story That Time Forgot to be reviewed as part of her Christmas special extravaganza, Shelf feels like she's letting them down by admitting she doesn't think it's as great as everyone thinks it is. Angel Kitty appears to tell her that she's not wrong for feeling this way and to not let others think worry her. Shelf then amends her final thoughts to say Angel Kitty is the best thing about the special and we don't deserve her.
