As someone who recently went ahead and watched Z and ZZ I recommend you don't skip either of them. Z is an excellent show, and it feels amazing to go from MSG to the first episode of Z. Genuinely a fantastic anime experience, there's only a few issues with it IMO (mainly just one character being obnoxiously written) but it's amazing.
ZZ shouldn't be skipped. Some people like to say to skip it and go straight to CCA, but doing so leaves a fuckton of plot threads hanging from the end of Z. More importantly, ZZ genuinely has some amazing fights and good scenes, and it does well to reinforce both the themes of Z and CCA. Its major flaw is that the first 16 or so episodes can be a slog: it has more of a comedic tone at the start and people find it jarring and unbecoming for the series, and in particular the antics of a few characters can be grating.
Past those episodes (really, right after the Moon Moon arc) the show picks up and is decently solid, and the final quarter of the series is genuinely excellent. You'd be doing yourself a massive disservice by not watching ZZ.
The people who are telling you to skip it mean well, but I heavily disagree. Of course, if you get halfway through and drop it that's your prerogative, but personally I do recommend finishing it especially since the last few episodes are a tremendous payoff to both Z and ZZ. Trust me, you won't regret it and you won't have the lingering feeling of being a "poser" for skipping one of the original UC series.
