In an effort to create culture or avoid the censors some series have created some unique sounding swear words.
Frell (Farscape) This made reading Ella Enchanted a bit awkward since the main character is from the land of Frell.
Frak (BSG)
Gorram (Firefly)
And you can't go past Wash's "Holy Mother of God and all her wacky nephews". Firefly does come up with unique ones, ya just have to translate them.
What about any other series? Did Babylon 5 have any of their own? Star Trek had some interesting ones in the Klingon language didn't they? Red Dwarf had a pretty good one too, I just can't remember it right now.
