Yes, you do. You very much do. Particularly, as unusual as this is, the dubbed version. Most of the performances are at least as good, and English!Vash (whose name escapes me at the moment) is far better, capturing both of the character's extremes perfectly. Probably the only beef I can think of anyone having with it is that it covers both of the manga series, and, since Trigun Maximum is apparently a lot more serious than the original, the TV show suffers a fairly abrupt reversal of mood about halfway through.
For following the action, well, I'd rate Vash and Knives' fight scene in episode 26 as the second best gunfight I've ever seen, period. (The first, if you're wondering, is the climax of a rather Matrix-esque film called Equilibrium.)
