Is there a no-filler guide to Season 6? I need to catch up but I'm primarily hoping to trim out the non-story episodes for now. (I'll go back and catch them later.)

Adventure Time Season 7 |OT| *CN walks into devastated fandom w/ new episodes*

Probably, but season 6 is probably the most serial season - episodes remain standalone but there are more ties than ever between them IIRC.
And in the back half, pretty much every episode starts hinting towards the finale, so you basically need to watch all of them.
There was a stretch of episodes halfway through that can definitely be skipped, and watching them later would probably make the season better.
Despite that, I don't like using the word "filler" with Adventure Time. The show is by its very nature stand alone episodes - most Adventure Time episodes are "filler."
I need this to
The new episode was good

Spoilers:
Really like the direction these new episodes are going and I am excited about Thursday's and Friday's episodes.
. Spoilers:
Really like seeing the lives of the candy people, so having an episode focused on them is really nice. We learn how the soda ones are 'born', how Root Bear Guy 'dies' (I'm guessing that happened in Season Six), and how Cherry Cream Soda copes with her husbands passing. Like the cameo from Jake and Lady Rainacorn and the ending was well done .

.I feel that between all the episodes of this new season out right now, the one that came out on Tuesday was the best (to me at least), but you're right; these new episodes while good/great, doesn't match what past seasons were.
But considering the show is running for its Seventh season at this point, its very impressive that the quality is still high; many shows start to dip with their quality far earlier (Family Guy started getting bad after Season 4 for example).
Looking forward to the Stakes Spin-Off series, as I am very interested in seeing how the quality of that matches other episodes of the show. With Rebecca Sugar coming back on board in that mini series (after her fantastic work with Steven Universe) and the quality of these episodes being high, this mini-series has a lot of potential

If Marceline isn't in a ep it ain't worth watching

Huh, I haven't really been watching since mid season 5. Was season 6 really that bad?
Title card for "Mama Said"
That invalidates more than three-quarters of AT's entire run.
Fun Fact: Not counting the pilot and the shorts, the Season 7 premiere was AT's 200th episode.

And it's well worth missing them
Great last two episodes and such a really nice sweet ending to Cherry Cream Soda especially after some pretty heavy content.
"Stakes!" media blowout:

Ahhh varmints that's the stuff
Hah this was a really fun one. First great Finn and Jake ep of the season, nailed their lackadaisical adventuring and offbeat sense of humor, had a ton of creative art and events. hilarious non sequitur ending.
Tomorrow will be good I bet anything BMO usually is and it looks like it's the first ep boarded by Partridge whose art I've liked for a while.

Fun episode. Much like PB, Finn and Jake are being re-positioned outside the Candy Kingdom's influence and being allowed to choose their own paths in life. Not that they didn't already, but now that they're fired they have no need to obey KOO's somewhat random royal edicts simply because they envision themselves as proper knights loyal to king and country.
It was nice to see Canyon again. Her role in the episode didn't seem all that purposeful but she seemed like a good foil for F&J's struggling loyalty issues. Mushroom monster was an odd duck, though.
It appears the voice of B-MO and Lady Rainicorn, Niki Yang, is working on her own kid's show now, and there's a pilot up on Amazon. Full details here. I thought it was cute. Seems like they could use some reviews and ratings to help push the show, so if you like what you see you should maybe throw a little positive something their way.

King of Ooo is voiced by Andy Daily. Be sure to check out Review as well. One of the best comedies on TV right now.
Really liked the episode .

Its nice seeing Finn & Jake being fired by the King of Ooo; helps them go through the same path PB and Marcy are dealing with, finding themselves and getting a place in the world. Finn and Jake already have this (with both seeing themselves as heroes of Ooo) but still, nice to see this happen. It could also be a great set up for the Stakes mini-series; they are helping PB and Marcy because they have nothing else better to do .
Never heard of Canyon before, but I'm guessing she was a big character in season five or six (which I really need to catch up on; missed a lot of episodes from both seasons), so that's why I'm a bit lost with her character. But regardless of that, she was funny and her interactions with Finn & Jake was great.
Loved the way the episode ended with the King of Ooo trying to fly on the pizza XD! He is a really funny character and I hope we see more of him :'). The Banana Guard starting to sing at the end was really out there too XD!

That was great. I'm believing that football isn't real and BMO is just insane though. Or maybe BMO just has split personality disorder.

I think its a split personality disorder too which is cool to introduce. Great episode though.
Yeah, that episode was amazing. I'm gonna be in the camp that thinks
Now to be fair I've never been as down on season 6 as some people in the first place but I gotta say this one is really shaping up to be my favourite since 4. Hope it can keep it up because I'm really loving it so far!
Football is real. I know it can all be interpreted to be part of a delusion but seeing the mirror universe from BMO's perspective convinced me it was real.

I haven't watched Adventure Time in ages (since the beginning of season 6), so I've missed a lot.
I'm coming back for Marceline though, sorry, not sorry. Saw Varmints, will be back for Stakes.
Watched most of the episode and man, was impressed how they handheld things.
The best part of it was that its up to the viewer regarding Football being real or not; enough points to him/her being real but you could easily see it being a way for BEMO for coping with a case of MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder). Always thought he/she was an imaginary friend for BEMO since he/she was introduced but I'm in the camp thinking Football is real. Though the mirror world could be BEMO's 'Mind', so it can also be MPD too.
Finn and Jakes reaction to BEMO acting odd was great though, as they honestly didn't know how to take it; they just let BEMO do its thing.
Love the ending to the episode and I'm looking forward to the Stakes Spin-Off Mini Series in two weeks
. Really like the direction the show is going in; honestly captured what I loved of the show from past seasons and I really gotta give Season Six a full watch to get a solid view on that (as it seems to be very divisive).
Also gotta comment on how a few of these episodes are leading into the Stakes mini-series. Spoilers:
PB starting a new life and us getting a hint to her origin, Marcy bonding with PB and becoming closer, Finn & Jake being fired from the royal guard giving them the excuse to help out PB and Marcy latter on; a lot is set up to get the mini series in motion .

got to keep with those trends of people like her and Bonnie
Football was fun. to me it's always been super clear it's just in BMO's head though. even "in the mirror world" here they cleverly made it so BMO only saw what "Football" would be able to see by looking in the mirror while the rest was black. which looked really cool and creepy. But this is no more real than BMO Noire I think

I normally love episodes about BMO, but I wasn't a fan of this one. Dunno why.

I don't like 'em much actually so I might skip it heh. But I do admire the hell when shows take attention away from Hero 1 and Hero 2, wish more did that, and some of my fav episodes have been those.

honestly in retrospect my favorite part of Football is that jake and finn's first post-employment activity is just...eatin a lot of grapefruit
