What's So Good About Abrams?
Okay, so you've faced the fact that your child has this...attachment to Dan Abrams. It's a little odd, yes, but the guy does have some positive attributes that you can reinforce in your living piece of clay. Your son or daughter at this age still looks up to you for guidance and support.  Hurry, before the window of opportunity slams shut.
Let's explore this subject, shall we?
Where to begin? Okay, start with the basics. Mr. Abrams is a lawyer, so it is likely that he is reasonably intelligent. This can go a long way when working your child into the reading habit.  If he wants to be like Dan then he certainly should read every day.  Mr. Abrams has a decent job which leads one to believe he must be responsible, you know, getting his work done, arriving at work on time and all that fun stuff.  Instill the virtue of picking up toys when your child is done playing with them. That way no one trips and falls.  Of course, if they do and they sue you, instruct your child that if he grows up to be just like Dan, he could be your defending counsel and save your home and all other important assets.  See, this can be a good thing, this Abrams Condition that your child has.  What else?  Oh,...hmm...well, Mr. Abrams usually looks well kept on camera.  Let your child know that Dan doesn't just roll out of bed looking that way.  He certainly must brush his teeth, comb his hair, and wash behind his ears every morning.  You can stretch this into a whole hygiene lesson if you want to.  And Abrams is well dressed.  Now that is a plus. Don't want to present a grubby kid to the world, now do you?  Stress the importance of clean, non-jellied, non-peanut buttered, non-who-knows-what-else clothes to your child.  Probably one of the better qualities you can point out at this tender age is Mr. Abram's use of the English language. There is no slang, cursing, or other objectionable words when the man speaks.  No potty mouth. That's the goal here.  Oh, and Mr. Abrams can get pretty feisty with his "Abrams Report" guests. This could be good if you want your child to be assertive.  However, make sure your child does not take it too far and become a mouthy brat. 
Use these tools wisely, moms.  We only have one chance at forming productive citizens.  If you know of any other good things about Abrams, please be sure to forward them to me.  I'd be happy to add them to the collection.
And now that he has his own show, "The Abrams Report", it would be so very simple to parlay this into the "see what happens when you work hard" lesson.  Also, your child may notice that Mr. Abrams sometimes makes jokes on his program.  Very beneficial to urging Mr. Abrams's young fan to choose a job that he likes, not just one that will make someone else happy.  (That would be you, dear parent.  Remember that your child is his own person, not an extension of you. So if he feels his true calling is to paint on the streets of France, go with it.  It will save you all much grief.)
