Heartwarming / Letterkenny

Go To

  • The very first episode has Wayne defending Alexander from the guy Angie is now seeing. While Wayne has been The Stoic up until this point, this scene shows him as a decent guy who doesn't take kindly to bullies.
    • In addition, Wayne doesn't actually throw hands with the douchebag until he insults Katy. Which establishes pretty quickly that for all the shit the two give each other, they've got each other's backs, no questions asked.
  • In Letterkenny Talent Show, when Daryl is fumbling his dance routine due to nerves, Wayne, Katy, Dan, and a host of others all join him onstage to back him up.
    • This includes fellow competitors Gail, Mc Murray and Mrs. Mc Murray.
    • Also, when asked who his favorite comedian is, Wayne immediately names Mark Forward (who plays Coach.)
  • Tanis welcoming Axe and Slash back to her grill in Way To A Man's Heart. They may have been on opposite sides for a bit, but Tanis will always welcome back family with open arms.
  • Pretty much the entirety of The Three Wise Men. Wayne spends a lot of time finding heartfelt presents for the rest of Letterkenny (even those he doesn't even like, such as Jonesy and Reilly), and their overjoyed reactions are genuinely very sweet. There's also the fact that he invited people he doesn't like or know much (namely Jonesy, Reilly, Coach, Stewart and Roald) over for Christmas in the first place.
    • It's especially sweet with Coach, since he mentions that he'd spend Christmas Eve with his wife who passed away, so Wayne and Katy are making sure he's not alone on Christmas Eve. Wayne also lets him reminisce in a hilariously uncomfortable way about the sex he would have with his wife.
  • Wayne and Stewart bonding over hockey in the Valentine's Day Special. While everyone else is away at the speed dating event, the two enjoy each other's company and find common ground.
    Wayne: You really just don't give a fuck, do ya?
    Stewart: Hard no.
    Wayne: Wondrous.
    • Also in the Valentine's Day special, Dan shows that he handmakes custom Valentines for everyone in town that he knows. Dax is very touched.
  • Tanis' continued involvement with the Letterkenny Irish, done purely as a way to entertain her young cousins (who love hockey and chirping) and keep them interested in sports.
  • In Day Beers Day, nearly every major character in Letterkenny rushing to Dierks' house to beat the crap out of him after finding out he's been unfaithful to Katy. As noted in the episode, they might squabble amongst themselves, but people in a small town do care deeply about each other.
    • Also, the entire episode features most of the cast hanging out and amicably chatting, including groups who don't normally get along (such as the Hicks and the Hockey Players.) There's also a really sweet montage of everyone dancing together.
    • For perspective, the only characters we don't see on the rampage against Dierks are Ron, Dax, Coach, Tanis, or Marie-Fred, and to be fair (to be fairrrrr...) to Marie-Fred, she's the one who made a special, hours-long drive from Quebec to see Wayne and warn him of Dierks's infidelity, the very next day after she found out about it. It goes to show how loved Katy is by everyone, even after Marie-Fred and Wayne broke up.
    • During the dancing montage, Stewart and Roald can be seen dancing together, with Roald's head on Stewart's shoulder.
  • At the end of season 3, Gae has been getting along so well with the Skids that they are all distraught when her mother shows up to take her home. Even though Gae reminds them that was the plan all along, she's clearly grown attached to them too and doesn't want to leave.
    • Stewart kissing her hand in a genuinely sweet gesture.
  • After every single mention of Samuel causes Wayne to immediately state how much he hates the kid, their interaction at the end of the Halloween special shows Wayne being a stern but good influence on Samuel. Who dresses up as his hero: Wayne.
    • Wayne sticks by his punishment of Samuel not getting a full-sized chocolate bar for Halloween since Samuel stole his sister's... but he didn't say anything about sharing one with Samuel.
  • Wayne, Dan, and Daryl going out of their way to help Katy prepare for the spelling bee and lifting her up on their shoulders when she wins.
  • Wayne and Katy's entire relationship is very sweet, even when they bust each other's chops or annoy each other, it's clear the siblings love each other and have each other's backs no matter what.
  • Wayne obtaining more pennies for Katy's pile so she wins their yearly competitive charity drive. Katy knows Wayne did something but he plays dumb, implying that he has taken a dive every year for seemingly no reason other than letting his sister win. Not to mention, having more pennies would mean even more money would be donated.
  • Daryl's Super Soft birthday party and the fact that he doesn't care much for it, but that he lets Wayne and Katy put it on each year because they didn't get to have birthday parties growing up.
  • Wayne is depressed and holed up in a shed after ending his engagement to Marie-Fred so what do Daryl and Dan do? They hang out outside the shed to keep Wayne company until he's ready to come out again.
    • The group hug that happens when he finally comes out.
  • The second episode of the animated shorts Littlekenny shows how Daryl and Wayne met as kids. Two older boys were making Katy cry, so Daryl put himself in front of her and threatened to give them both black eyes. Wayne showed up to chase them away, and the two have been friends ever since.
  • Tyson and Joint Boy become Stewart's personal trainers to get him ready for a fight with a drug dealer who threatened him and some girls he's involved with. They tell him that they're proud of him for standing up for himself and his ladies, and that he should be proud of himself too. Stewart, who's been the go-to butt monkey for the past eight seasons, is visibly moved to tears.
  • In the Season 9 Premiere, after beating the shit out of Dierks, most of the groups in Letterkenny are seen hanging out and playfully chatting in a diner. They've certainly become closer over the years.
    • At the end of the premiere, the Skids provoke the ire of a buck and doe crowd by changing the playlist. The episode ends with the Hicks and the Jocks marching towards the mob to go rescue them without a second thought.
  • In the season 1 finale, after the donnybrook, the Hicks, Hockey Players and Skids all go for a drink at MoDeans, despite the fact that the three groups don't usually get along, they were just fighting each other and the Skids caused the problem in the first place- and yet there they all are, getting along.
  • In "Bock Et Biche", Wayne's standing at the edge of the room looking sad because his friends have all hooked up with dance partners, so Tyson and Joint Boy pull him out of his misery by getting him to come drink with them.
  • In 'Sleepover', the various groups are all having sleepovers during a long, freezing winter's night. Seeing them all hanging out and having fun (and eventually falling asleep together) is adorable.
  • The ending of "We Don't Fight at Weddings". Stewart unexpectedly nails it as a DJ, putting Ron and Dax's first dance to Peaches' Fuck the Pain Away - everyone at the wedding are having a blast as the grooms do a wild dance.
  • In a strange way, Season 10's episode Prostate is a heartwarming moment for Mark Forward (Coach.) Coach repeatedly mentions his trips to the gym, which annoy the other characters, but they do call attention to the fact that Forward had lost a considerable amount of weight and had gotten in much better shape.
    • Also, Coach's claim that the gym owner joked that he was in the gym more than she was actually comes from a comment by one of Forward's fans.
  • The finale of Season 10, which has Wayne, Dan, Katy, Daryl, Rosie, Stewart, Roald, Reilly, and Jonesy all deciding to just kick back and spend time together drinking. They're all oddballs and wildly different, but they're absolutely all True Companions.
  • The ending of the International Women's Day special, where Wayne reveals (in a rare bit of emotion for him) that the woman he idolizes is Katy for everything she does for him. When he tells her how grateful he is for her, she just smiles and hugs him.
  • When Reilly and Jonesy finally stand up to Harley for her nonstop verbal abuse, they tell her there's only one person who gets to talk to them like that. Cue Tanis appearing and ripping her a new one before warning her to never mess with her boys again.
  • In the season 11 finale, when Jivin Pete starts talking about Wayne behind his back, everyone runs to immediately tell Wayne, confident he'd never say things like that about them.
  • Seeing everyone dancing and having fun in "Over and Out" at Stewart's rave. He also sincerely thanks everyone for coming, in sharp contrast to the last time he held a rave.
