I just got lucky enough recently to find some time, to finally go through my anime backlog.
Likewise. I watch anime for entertainment, and if that means I miss an influential series (whether due to lack of time or just plain old lack of interest) I'm fine with it.
I do tend to be somewhat picky but it also means that I rarely end up feeling like I wasted my time watching a show—I am fairly aware of my own tastes and what I might like and dislike, though I can 100% still be surprised, and so I usually end up picking shows I'd actually like. I might have excluded some I'd like but I have also excluded shows I would feel I wasted my time by watching, so… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
