* In the ''[[Dirty Harry]]'' movie ''[[Magnum Force]]'', Harry is called to the scene of a murder with his partner. One of the cops there comments on how the inside the victim's car is just filled with all kinds of brain parts (the audience doesn't see this) and generally goes into the most gross bodies he's seen. Harry is unaffected but his partner looks at the body and then turns to go puke.
** Even the first ''[[Dirty Harry (Film)|Dirty Harry]]'' movie involves Harry telling someone who is [[Interrupted Suicide|considering jumping off a building]] that he wants the guy's name, because the mess of a splattered body often makes people hard to identify. The guy says he thinks he's gonna puke, and Harry, who doesn't seem nauseated at all, says "[[Crosses the Line Twice|don't do that, not with all those people down there looking up]]."
* In ''[[National Lampoon's Vacation]]'', after the Griswolds discover their dog had peed on their sandwiches, everyone starts spitting their sandwich out except Grandma Griswold, who just keeps eating.

* In the ''[[Married... Withwith Children]]'' episode "Hot off the Grill," everyone at Al's cookout reacts with disgust when they learn that [[It Makes Sense in Context|Kelly added the ashes of Marcy's dead aunt to Al's grill.]] Everyone, that is, except Steve, who hated said aunt...and starts grinning as he eats his "Bundy-burger" with even more enthusiasm.
* This comes up from time to time on ''[[Bones]]'', where Brennan and the other squints at the Jeffersonian are unfazed by decaying corpses and whatnot while other characters get squicked to varying degrees, including having to vomit.
* ''[[Dirty Jobs]]'' has this happen ''all the time''. There was an episode where a cameraman literally stood under a shower of condensed raw sewage and didn't even flinch.
Line 35:
* In the ''[[Futurama]]'' episode "Parasites Lost", after learning there are worms inside Fry's body:
{{quote| '''Hermes:''' (''eating popcorn'') It's nauseating, mon! (''eats more popcorn'') Is there no way to get rid of the disgusting maggots?}}
* Happens a lot in ''[[Superjail (Animation)|Superjail]]'', where disgusting and violent deaths are commonplace.
