It did foreshadow it pretty hardcore in this though, with people close to him dying of HIV, and with some commentary on some of the sad societal treatment of the gay community. (It also started with that quote "little did we know in 9 months, he would be gone."

Yeah, I was just reading something with Alan when he finally made EGOT about the night they won something for TLM, I can't remember, and Howard pulled him aside to be like "I have something to tell you..."  |

Yeah that was in the documentary, and Alan thought maybe he didn't want to work together anymore.
