100-M.O.M. -- Couldn't they give advance warning?

I’m watching 100 Most Outrageous Moments, and at one point, they showed the game show girl who throws up on camera. It would’ve been nice to get a little advance warning that this was going to happen. Fortunately, I’m not squeamish enough to have lost my lunch from seeing that, but I can just imagine someone with a sensitive stomach seeing this.

That is all.

Oy, I agree. I hate seeing puke, either on screen or in real life. That vomiting episode happens quite quickly, too–there’s no time to turn your eyes away.

I was really enjoying the first episode of “Mad Men” I happened to catch, until the martinis, oysters, and cheesecake came up in the office. I didn’t need to see that. Sounds, and reaction shots from the other actors would have sufficed.

There was a disclaimer.

It was in the TITLE of the show.
You were perhaps expecting “100 Fluffiest Bunnies?”

I think it’d be more appropriate if it bore a big red label: WARNING: LARK’S VOMIT.

Our sales would plummet!

Well, that’s no good. The sight of anything cloyingly hyper-cute makes me toss my cookies.

I missed most of it, and was sure that the #1 most outrageous moment was gonna be Johnny Carson tossing Ed Ames’ tomahawk. Was that in there anywhere?

It was nice to lay the “In the butt, Bob” thing to rest, sorta.

I hate this new trend of showing people throwing up on-screen. I was watching an older movie the other day and the actor lurched out of camera range before puking. All we got was sound effects, and it was plenty realistic.

No, really, the show was called “100 Most Outrageous Moments.” What additional disclaimer do you need?

Damn, would I like to have a barf like that! And then do it again! :slight_smile:
I’d also love to have seen the oysters come up. Would they look the same as they went down? How could you tell? The mind boggles…

Vomiting on television?! Why, that’s outrageous!

Couldn’t there have been a warning in the thread title if you were going to mention throwing up in the OP?

Hey, Lib, is it too much to ask that you put a TMI in the title of your post before you mention things like that? Where’s your sense of common decency?! :mad:

Hate to break it to you, but decency isn’t all that common anymore…

I keep opening this thread expecting to read something about Mom!

I certainly don’t like watching people who are clearly nauseous, but the sudden out-of-nowhere puke is comedy gold. Just a couple of days ago I had some bad sardines and spent all morning going “Ya, hello?” - BLAAAAAARGH - “Oooh! Okay!”

Warning - barf

:slight_smile:

My favorite part is her explanation. “I have extremely painful menses.” I like to imagine Kelly Ripa saying it on her morning show and the outrage it would produce.
