The Blue Raja's mother in Mystery Men (1999) - he's notable as being able to throw cutlery (forks and spoons but not knives) perfectly, but suffers a crisis of confidence after a mission goes badly wrong. His elderly mother assumes from his costume that he's gay and trying to come out to her, but he explains his (somewhat ludicrous) assumed back story and and secret identity. His mother then gives him a boxed set of antique silver-wear, which he uses to help save the day in the final battle of the film.
Joyce Summers in later episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003) - admittedly her back-story includes committing Buffy as insane for a while, but once Buffy proves to her that they do exist she's mostly very supportive.
Jonathan and Martha Kent in Lois and Clark: the New Adventures of Superman (1993-7) Once Clark decides to use his powers publicly they are both very supportive, with Martha making him a load of costumes before coming up with the iconic form-fitting outfit, selected because "Nobody will be looking at your face". I think it's the only version of an adult Metropolis-based Superman where both parents are important figures in his life, appearing (usually very briefly) in about half the episodes.
