Skipping episodes to get to the plot (Typically the reason why someone would continue watching a show) makes perfect sense.

When I rewatch shows, I skip the episodes that are basically the cast acting silly and goofy and has no bearing on the plot.

Exactly that. Sounds pretty damn presumptuous to say that because I don't want to watch a pointless episode about Black fighting a pear monster that wants to steal everyone's shoes that I also don't care about his struggle against Golgom and search for his brother. Do you see why I might class those two plots in seperate levels of interest? I feel like avoiding the actual time wasting episodes is about as far away from a waste of time as you can get.

Especially since I feel like the older shows were especially filler-y in their episodic nature. Just because that's how it was back then. They didn't usually space out the main plot among it, you'd have several eps of just nothing consequential, then the show turns hard serialized for the main plot.
