First, King revealed on the And Just Like That… The Writer’s Room podcast that Handler was wearing a prosthetic penis for the scene.
He added that the main point of the scene was to convey that the couple still has a healthy and spontaneous sex life.
‘It wasn’t enough for us to have it happen [like] in other TV shows where you never see the d***,’ King revealed.

‘Harry would have — I decided and people agreed with me — he would have a substantial penis,’ King added.
He came to the conclusion that Harry would have a ‘substantial penis, ‘Because one of the things that Charlotte says about Harry in Sex and the City is [their] great sex life: that she’s repulsed by it, but she wants him.’
King noted that one’s sex life isn’t, ‘dependent on your penis size,’ though, ‘when you’re going to show his penis, let’s make it be something that’s a nice size. Why not?’

The scene in question featured Harry taking it out for Charlotte when their daughter Lily walks in and catches them, which King said was awkward to shoot but they nailed it.
‘It’s so tense because you’re being respectful, and then when we got that one shot where Lily comes in and Charlotte turns and she drops the penis and it’s just that one shot from Lily’s point of view, as soon as [the director] said cut, everybody screamed and applauded,’ King said.
And Just Like That wraps up its 10-episode run with the last two episodes, No Strings Attached on January 27 and Seeing the Light on February 3.
