What do you mean? They always bring Lucas characters in. And this show was inspired by Boba Fett. So they likely will, but when they do they will do so in a big way.

Also seeing a live action depiction of both the Darksaber and Death Watch is cool.
Darksaber shot was spoiled to me by some shit YouTuber. Served me right for waiting to watch this the legit way.
Gotta say though, the Darksaber didnt work too well in live action. Looked very animated. Hopefully they can improve that next season.
Edit: I just remembered the shit YouTuber was Disney! So I unsubscribed!

Anyways I don't think Boba will appear because he might overshadow Mando. And more importantly Boba may very well be dead.

Disagree. Its like saying they couldnt have Han Solo in the ST because that would overshadow Finn and Poe.
Boba was supposed to be dead in ROTJ. But that could easily be retconned. Would be fitting because the whole Mandalorian lore was inspired by Boba Fett (out of Universe). But like I said, would have to be a big moment. But I definitely see it happening.
Personally though Id prefer Cad Bane showing up.
I'm a Boba fan, but I don't think they should bring him back TBH, for more or less the same reasons they shouldn't have brought Palps back, let's say 50% of viewers are into the idea, they're not all going to like however it's executed, so you've pissed off the majority of your fan base to please like 1 in 4 people. Just leave him be I say, he became such a cult character because we know almost nothing about him, I think his name only gets said once.

Han Solo died in the first movie of a trilogy so I don't think they were worried about that.
I don't think we'll see Boba Fett post ROTJ.
I thought Cad Bane was killed in that shootout with Boba in that unfinished Clone Wars episode. I think I read that that was canon?

Kinda missing the point of the Han Solo example.
Was Cad Bane confirmed dead?

Disney 100% did the right thing by making The Mandalorian a new character imo.
Disney wanted to play it safe - they knew after all the recent fvck-ups with established characters in the Saga, they couldn't afford one more screw up - so they did the safe and easy thing and instead of making a show about Boba Fett (which Lucas was going to do) they created their own safe knock-off of Boba Fett - and named him The Mandalorian.
