Part of me wants to say Gorram is the best because of the FF link but my heart tells me to go for Smeg.

It's just so instantly recognizable in the UK and can used in so many different ways. Even people that haven't seen Red Dwarf know the word. Most of the others on the list would only relate to fans of the show.

Yeah, I felt like I didn't have the time to look up the exact quote before somebody else picked it up.

A Firefly quote bot would be pretty useful here.

KRIFFING!!! Don't forget kriffing! most common SW swear word ever used lol XD

shisno - that's an RvB one, though not so much a curse as a derogatory remark, which i guess can be considered a swear, can't it? nvm. @_@

I thought the word "rutting" was tossed around quite a bit. I'm not sure I heard every crew member sprout this little jem but I'm sure the ships mechanic, Doc Simon and sister River, Mal and Jayne all made use of it in one episode or another.
