It actually is, yes.

Though if you haven’t started the series at this point, you are in for a world of hurt with filler, recaps, and molasses-slow pacing.

There is a fan project called One Pace, which re-edits the whole series to cut out as much as possible and make it easier to just watch the main story all the way through. Unless you really want to see time-stretching that makes Dragonball Z look hurried, you should watch it that way instead.
