One minute he was Irish and the next scene he was American..after that then back to Irish again...forget the time line, he did this through out. But why?

Being that Stevenson is a real Irishman playing an Irish American, you have to give him a little license to slink back and forth

Bad casting? Danny Greene was not from Ireland he was from Cleveland. So they should have found an actor that can either totally hide the accent or an American actor.
