Popular culture

The village of Hewlett Harbor was specifically mentioned by TV personality Johnny "Drama" Chase on HBO's "Entourage" on the Sunday, May 13, 2007 episode entitled "The Resurrection." On "Entourage", Drama stars in a fictional NBC TV series called "Five Towns". The series' name is a reference to the real "Five Towns," an informal grouping of villages and hamlets located on Long Island, New York's South Shore of western Nassau County. "The Hewletts" (Hewlett, Hewlett Harbor, Hewlett Bay Park, and Hewlett Neck) are generally grouped together as one of the "Five Towns," with the other four being Woodmere, Cedarhurst, Lawrence, and Inwood, along with Woodsburgh.

Accessed May 20, 2008. "The basic five are Lawrence, Cedarhurst, Woodmere, Hewlett and Inwood. But the area also includes some unincorporated communities and two tiny villages, Hewlett Bay Park and Woodsburgh, that are not added to the final total."] The fictional "Five Towns" series is produced by actor/screenwriter/producer Ed Burns (who plays himself on "Entourage"), who grew up in the Hewlett area and attended Hewlett High School.
