Why is this show liked so much? It's so predictable! It's easy to tell how an episode is going to go:

-Some tough looking guy/creature shows up and says he is going to destroy the Earth.

-Goku suddenly appears and says he'll stop them

-The villain says he is more powerful than Goku

-Goku gets angered, begins shouting at the top of his lungs, and suddenly turns super- saiyan.

-Super saiyan Goku floats over to the villain.

-Goku begins to hit them and they die (over-exaggerated power isn't always cool. it's just lazy and it's basically the writers saying "We're not bothered to think of anything else, so let's just make everything quick")

So, yeah, overrated show. It's pretty much everywhere on the internet, and it's super predictable. Also the plot is pratically non-existent in the show The show isn't horrible, but it isn't that great either.. Not really my cup of tea anime, I prefer something like Yu-Gi-Oh GX. Also, final note: The show has a very annoying fanbase. As in, very annoying.
