Yep, just like how one of the funniest things I've ever seen on TV was the scene from the first episode of South Park when Kyle screams at the aliens.

"Hey you scrawny-eyed <bleep bleep>! What the <bleep> is wrong with you?! You must be some kind of <bleep bleep> to be able to ignore a crying child! You know what you like?! You like to <bleep bleep> and <bleeep bleeeeeeeeeeeep> a <bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep> in <bleeeeeeeeeeep bleeeeep bleeeeeeeeeeeeep> s- <bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep>!"
"Hey, Wendy, what's a <bleep bleep>?"

It wouldn't be nearly as funny if he wasn't bleeped out. (In fact, they'd have to work a lot harder to make it funny at all.
