Costello is an American television sitcom created by Sue Costello and Cheryl Holliday which aired on Fox from September 15 to October 13, 1998.
The series was about an Irish-American family in South Boston.[1] 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.[2]
The show wasn't popular with critics, who considered it vulgar and shouty.[3] A review in The New York Times said, "There are entirely too many colorfully crude blue-collar characters".[4] The Los Angeles Times called it a more working-class Cheers and criticized Costello's acting ability.[2]
