Costello is an American television sitcom that aired from September 15, 1998 to October 13, 1998.

The series was about an Irish-American family in South Boston. The central character is Sue Murphy (Sue Costello), a barmaid who has broken up with her boyfriend and is trying to improve herself, despite the incomprehension of her blue-collar family.

The show wasn't popular with critics, who considered it vulgar and shouty. A review in The New York Times said, "There are entirely too many colorfully crude blue-collar characters". The Los Angeles Times called it a more working-class Cheers and criticised Costello's acting ability.
