History Heartwarming / FraggleRock

** Later on, Wembley leaves Boober's hidey-hole—only to see it beginning to cave in, with Boober still in it. Wembley runs to get his friends, who rescue Boober in the nick of time. Gobo tells him he has Wembley to thank.

--->'''Boober:''' Aww, little guy! ''[Hugs Wembley.]'' I'm so lucky to have you as a friend.

''(Sprocket starts licking Gobo, to the latter's delight.)''

* In "Pebble Pox Blues," when Wembley comes down with the titular sickness, Boober decides to forego his [[TerrifiedOfGerms germophobia]] to take care of him.

* In "Mirror Mirror" Red and Ma Gorg both end up befriending a talking mirror named Mavis on their birthday. Mavis falls off a shelf and breaks when Red tries to get her out of the Gorgs' castle. Red manages to glue her back together, but upon seeing how distraught Ma is over Mavis, she realizes Ma needs a friend more than Red needs a magic mirror. She ends up leaving Mavis with Ma, wishing her a happy birthday.

* In "The Perfect Blue Rollie," Wembley sees Boober's hidey-hole starting to cave in—with Boober still in it. He runs to get his friends, who rescue Boober in the nick of time. Gobo tells him he has Wembley to thank.

* A partly meta example: both renditions of "Pass It On." The first, from "[[Recap/FraggleRockS4E7ThePerfectBlueRollie The Perfect Blue Rollie]]," is about the joy of "giving love away" as they pass recirculating gifts of rollies from Fraggle to Fraggle. In the second, from "Film/AMuppetFamilyChristmas," the Fraggles, in song, tell Kermit and Robin, who have discovered a Fraggle hole in the basement of Emily Bear's farmhouse, about doing the same with a yellow pebble that's been a gift thirty-seven times. Mokey then gives it to Boober, who passes it on to Robin. Shortly after, Robin gives it to [[Series/SesameStreet Grover]], who is equally touched by the gift. Both renditions are a major dose of heartwarming, and Wembley's grunting just before the recurring "pass it on" line is adorable.
* A meta example can be seen at Creator/JimHenson's memorial service in 1990 at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York. Jerry Nelson (Gobo) and Steve Whitmire (Wembley) reprised their duet of the Season One song "Wemblin' Fool," as it was one of Henson's favorite songs from ''Fraggle Rock''. Despite the emotional circumstances, they gave an excellent performance and held it together very well. Then, Gobo, Wembley, Mokey, and Red joined in the Muppet all-star sing-along of "Just One Person," a touching song originally from ''[[Franchise/{{Peanuts}} Snoopy: The Musical]]'' about friendship and believing in yourself, which was a special favorite of Henson's and used in many other Muppet works. [[note]]Dave Goelz and Richard Hunt were performing their [[Series/TheMuppetShow Muppet Show]] characters, Gonzo and Scooter respectively.[[/note]]
** Then there's "Floyd's Lament," the self-penned poem Nelson read (in character as [[Series/TheMuppetShow Floyd Pepper]]) at the memorial service, which references both of Henson's recurring ''Fraggle'' characters, Cantus and Convincing John. These highlights can all be watched on [=YouTube=].

** The fact that Doc decides to move - because Ned, his best friend, has to move away for health reasons. Doc would rather relocate to stay with his friend than remain where he is.

* In "The Perfect Blue Rollie," Wembley sees Boober's hidey-hole starting to cave in—with Boober still in it. He runs to get his friends, who rescue Boober in the nick of time. Gobo tells him he has Wembley to thank, and Boober hugs Wembley, telling him, "I'm so lucky to have you as a friend!"

** The same can be said for the final episode's special version of the closing theme, where many of the show's major characters (including the Fraggles, the Doozers, Marjory, Philo & Gunge, the Gorgs, Doc and Sprocket) all come together to sing the theme song.

* "A Friend in Need": A Fraggle (Gobo) frees an Outer Space creature (Sprocket) who has gotten stuck in the hole in Doc's workshop, with indirect help from a Gorg (Ma), and also ends up indirectly helping another Outer Space creature (Doc). It's an important episode for CharacterDevelopment, and not surprisingly was one of the episodes directed by Jim Henson himself. Also, Sprocket's barking and howling to accompany Gobo on his song "Count on Me" is the cutest thing ever.
* "[[Recap/FraggleRockS1E20TheGardenPlot The Garden Plot]]": After Gobo is badly hurt in the Gorgs' garden, Red sings the song "Muck and Goo" to comfort him, at Boober's suggestion. Gobo flashes back to when he was younger and sang the song with his Uncle Traveling Matt, and this is followed by Junior Gorg flashing back to when Pa sang that same song to ''him'' as a baby. This is particularly heartwarming because it shows a softer, more loving and nurturing side to Pa Gorg that we don't see much of otherwise, especially since this comes in the same episode as "Dum of a Son of a Gun," Pa's musical ReasonYouSuckSpeech to Junior. Not that Pa doesn't love Junior; he just doesn't wear it on his sleeve.

* Foreshadowing this is Mokey's song "Time to Live as One" in "The Finger of Light." Especially since Wembley gets one of the Doozers to join in.

* In "Bored Stiff," Junior Gorg finds a dangerous poison called Boredom Juice that paralyzes anyone who smells it, turning them in an unmoving, unfeeling drone who can only say "boooo-riiing." Pa orders him to use the Boredom Juice on the Fraggles, demonstrating with a spray can and hitting Wembley, Mokey, and Red with it. When Junior is left alone, though, he [[WhatYouAreInTheDark can't bring himself to hurt the Fraggles]] and dumps the Juice out on a flower instead. That's heartwarming on its own, but what ''really'' sells it is when Gobo smells the flower and also becomes bored stiff. Junior Gorg immediately uses the antidote--a peppy song and dance--to cure him, and the two agree to work together to save Fraggle Rock. The episode ends with everyone--including Ma and Pa Gorg--singing and dancing as friends, with Junior admitting that deep down, he likes the Fraggles (especially when he gets to try to catch them) and genuinely doesn't want to see them endangered.
