Depends on the context.
shareI prefer the bleeps. They do sound funny when there is torrent of them while somebody is giving it a right go.

That actually does sound funny. It's particularly great when you have watched the whole scene and can totally figure out what they're saying, lol.
shareMy favorite is when they have the actors re-loop the dialogue for network TV, and the "darns" and "floops" don't match the lip movements.
shareI'm okay with these two setups:
1.) If the film/tv show is for families to watch on tv, the censoring is okay, so that the kids don't start imitating it.
2.) If it's an 18+ show, no need to censor. By then anyone watching it should be old enough to know how to curb their language.
Youtube makes me laugh as they will often bleep swearing but still spell it out on the subtitles.

shareI like it when they just drop the audio. Beeps are funny but you don't want that in a serious movie. I especially like it when the the audio is censored, but the subtitles/CC spell it all out.
