I think the trend is vomiting in comedy.

Whatever the type of comedy, they put it in. Other than that, it's not uncommon in a crime drama for a cop (or other person) to come upon a particularly gross dead body and vomit. In The River last week they found a freezer filled with long-dead corpses brimming with flies and while the doctor was the only one who could go in the room (to search for a particular body) he DID vomit after he came out. It wasn't played for laughs of course.

So anyway, my advice is: stop watching comedies. Watch dramas, SF, whatever, and you'll see a lot less GI distress on screen.

Wasn't there some 80's comedy with John Ritter that had kids vomiting up a storm at some carnival or something? I think the movie was called "Parenthood"?

Parenthood was Steve Martin's movie.

Problem Child & Problem Child 2 were John Ritter movies. I don't remember them but I'll bet there was a vomiting scene in at least one of them.

That's right. "Parenthood" is the one with a very young Keanu Reeves and Joaquin Phoenix.

What to expect when you're expecting - VOMIT SCENE (wife insisted on seeing this. I have no problem with RomCom's when they're good, but they so rarely are. This one wasn't)
