Okay, first things first: how much you enjoy this is going to depend really heavily on your tolerance for profanity and sex-based humor, because this show consists of almost nothing else. It was basically created for two reasons: as a massive Shout Out to western animation in general, and to give the censors an aneurysm. 90 percent of the show consists of vulgar, profanity-laden humor.
That said, even though I personally don't care for that type of humor much, I think PSG pulls it off most of the time. As far as I'm concerned, I think the dub cast did a very good job with the comedic timing (I definitely enjoyed the dub more than the sub). The animation is also top notch; it's extremely vibrant and dynamic and the occasional stylistic switches are usually funny as well as showing off the animators' ability. The fight with Scanty and Kneesocks is one of the coolest fights I've ever seen in any form of animation. The background music is almost entirely awesome as well.
Not that the show doesn't make a few missteps, some of the episodes go into overkill with the vulgar elements to the point that it overshadows the real comedy, and obviously some of the jokes are going to fall flat, but most of the time the delivery salvages it.
Long story short, if you have a high tolerance for vulgarity it's worth checking this show out, but if you're easily offended you should probably give this one a wide berth.
Worth a look, but DEFINITELY not for everyone. (Dub)
