That's fine, i'm not saying all filler is bad (like natruto ep 100 is hilarious. that's the ep they try to see what's under kakashi's mask), but that it takes a lot away from a show when more of it is filler than actual show. Like if i like a show's characters, for example, i like them because of how they contribute to the plot and how they grow and interact relative to previous interactions. that is, i like to have a reference point to determine whether a character is deep. with filler there's no way to determine that because the characters can be used for whatever purpose they want, can have growth in one episode, and then in the next that never happened and they're more shallow than before. Naruto does this with some of my favorite characters (like what happened to hinata's chakra lazers that she beat all those bees with in that one filler? you would think because of this she would be taught to use this skill more proficiently and develop precise, deadly long ranged attacks that would be undetectable AND/OR that she would be taught medical ninjutsu and come to shippuuden as a premier surgion. but nah, she's about as good as she was in naruto with a little more confidence and slightly improved general taijutsu. THAT'S IT. maaaaaaaaaaaan), and i think that's why i dont really give it any props. To be clear though, i'm the same way. i'm still watching the show because i like to finish what i start (and i like to know what i'm talking about when i criticize something).
good luck with bleach. if you want to skip bad filler skip eps: 64-109, 168-189, 206-212 (though these give some backstory, so i'd watch after), 230-265, and everything after 309-310ish. plus all the stupid holiday and new year specials. it's over 120 of the 310 episodes of the main series, 100% of everything after.
If i were you, though, i would stop after the first season or two. the first 63 episodes are worth a watch, but everything else goes pretty downhill after that.
