Irish Catholic priests or nuns, basically, turn up in a lot of places. It's like Ireland exports them.
This was indeed once very common back in The '50s and earlier when Ireland essentially did export clergy.note The Irish tradition of exporting Catholic clergy arguably goes back to the 6th century, when the sainted Irish abbots Columba and Columbanus evangelized and founded monasteries in Scotland and France, respectively. Both took significant numbers of Irish monks with them to help. It should also be noted that when dealing with different ethnic communities - German, Czech, Polish, etc - some Bishops tried to assign clergy of the same nationalities. In part this was due to the tradition of Irish priests and nuns going overseas both as students and missionaries and in part simply due to the very high emigration rate in Ireland (12.7 people per 1000 in 1950). It also runs with the stereotype, within Britain and the US, that Irish Catholics are particularly devout.
Having said that, this is definitely not the case today; changing demographics and the growth of secularism mean that these days, Ireland does not even train enough priests for her own needs, and has to import from Poland and Africa. Thus, unless the priest or nun is very elderly or is in a period piece, he or she is not too likely to be Irish. An exception is the United States, where even if priests who actually came from Ireland are fairly rare, Irish-descended clergy dominate the church hierarchy; there's a very good chance that any given American Catholic archbishop or Cardinal (both in fiction and reality) is Irish—it's something of a bit of a joke within the American Church that all the American Cardinals seem to trace at least part of their ancestry from the Emerald Isle.note Even where you wouldn't expect it—the Cardinal who ordered the construction of the current seat of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles is Roger Cardinal Mahoney However, the same is not true of the parishioners; religious surveys done within the last ten years show that Irish Americans are one of the most secularized ethnic communities in America.note About a third of non-religious Americans claim Irish ancestry, as opposed to just 12% of the total US population. If one figures that about 15% of all Americans are non-religious, then that figure rises to more than 40% for Irish Americans — numbers comparable to the average Western European country. In addition, having been born and raised in America, Irish priests are unlikely to have a heavy Irish accent despite what you find on TV.
Nevertheless, stock characters die hard (as Officer O'Hara can attest), and even if doesn't make much sense any more, Irish priests abroad are not quite a Dead Horse Trope yet.
See also Christianity is Catholic and Bad Habits.
In terms of rank, the authority tropes arguably equal are Badass Preacher, Corrupt Corporate Executive, Preacher Man, Pedophile Priest, Schoolteachers Sexy Priest, Sinister Minister and The Vicar. For the next step down, see Student Council President. For the next step up, see Dean Bitterman.

Ballykissangel lampshades this since it's (initially) about an English priest assigned to a parish in Ireland.
Had a crossover episode with The Vicar of Dibley. Geraldine expects the priest visiting Dibley to be a stuffy old man, but is pleasantly surprised to see he's young, attractive, and down to earth. Similar to Geraldine who doesn't fit the description of a typical Vicar.

Father O'Leary, Dot's parish priest in Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. Not only is his name Irish, he speaks with a pronounced Irish accent, so it's likely he came from Ireland to Melbourne to be a priest. He also punches out an astronomer for promoting an atheistic theory of cosmology bearing some resemblance to the Big Bang.

Parodied in the Babes and Bullets section of Garfield: His 9 Lives, in which Sam Spayed is hired by the widow of a priest called Father O'Tabby, whose superior is Father O'Felix. The parody comes in when he asks how a priest could be married, and is told they're Greek Orthodox. This is not elaborated upon.

Father Ted is about three Priests (a drunkard, an idiot, and the title character) on an Irish island. This trope is invoked not so much Once an Episode as Once A Minute.
In one episode, a nun gushes to a black priest about what wonderful work he must be doing among those poor Africans, and ask how the missions there are doing. The priest replies in a thick Irish accent: "Sure, I wouldn't know, I'm from Donegal."

One appears on Good Eats, along with a rabbi and a nutritional anthropologist. Alton asks the priest about corned beef in Ireland, and the priest replies that he doesn't eat it. The rabbi doesn't provide much insight into the origin of the dish, either. The nutritional anthropologist explains that a traditional dish in Ireland is bacon and cabbage.note What the original Irish immigrants thought of as "bacon" was very different from what North Americans call "bacon". North American "bacon" is cut from the pork belly. In the UK and Ireland, "bacon" was and still is a cut made mainly of pork loin, often with a small piece of belly meat attached. When Irish immigrants came to the US, what they called "bacon" was out of the financial reach of many of them.note A more complete explanation of why it was out of their reach can be found in the "Particular dishes" folder of Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Food. Meanwhile, American bacon, while relatively cheap, would just disintegrate if boiled with cabbage, so it was useless for the traditional dish. But the Irish did have lots of new Jewish neighbors, who couldn't eat bacon of any kindnote Beef bacon and turkey bacon being much later inventions because of Kosher laws forbidding pork and pork products. They had lots of brisket, though, and showed their new Irish neighbors a way of preserving it that results in a meat product kind of, sort of like bacon—corned beef.note Note that some form of corned beef was known in Ireland for centuries, the island being excellent cattle country (hence its world-renowned dairy industry today). Salt beef is known in Irish texts dating back to at least the 12th century, and some kind of salted beef product has been made in Ireland pretty much continuously ever since. But by the 19th century, Irish corned beef was mostly produced for export—whether as "bully beef" in tins for the shops in England and the ration packs of the British Army, or more traditional salt beef for the Royal Navy. The Irish generally couldn't afford it and so didn't eat it. As a result, it became the replacement for bacon in the traditional dish in the US. (In fact, it's so popular that if St. Patrick's Day happens to fall on a Friday during Lent, when meat is forbidden to Catholics, the Catholic Church actually grants an exception to that rule for corned beef and cabbage!)

comment
In Frasier, the Seattle radio station's religious presenter is Father Mike, who in accent and demanour is affably Irish-American. Except for his surname being a Spanish one (Mendosa). This infers that all priests become Irish, regardless of ethnic origin.

Monsignor Ryan from Angel of the Bat is a priest of Irish descent, though he and his family have been in America long enough that he doesn't have many stereotypes attached to him.
