A concept for a TV series: Jedi Apprentice?

Yeah, I'm referring to those kid books that were written as a money-making gimmick for the PT. But, the first one is written very well - then, they switched authors (newer one was eh-ish by comparison).

Anyway, for anyone who has read these, wouldn't you want to see a TV series - or perhaps even just a fan movie (flash or LA) showing the story of the first one, from the perspective of ghost (I'm sure there's another term for that...) Obi-Wan? You konw, it could start out something like this.

DAGOBAH

(((a voice seeming far off, or perhaps subtitles as getting an Alec Guiness impersonator would IMO disrespect him))) Oh! Hello there, young one. If you're seeking Yoda, he has passed away. I am Obi-Wan, and I was a student of his.

Oh, I see; you can't see me, but you can just barely hear me. With proper training in the force, perhaps you could see me.

*sigh* it seems only yesterday when I was almost a farmer... do you care to hear my story?

END SCENARIO

Something to that effect.

A sample chapter of the first book is available at http://www.scholastic.com/titles/starwars/jedisamp1.htm

Reviews are available at http://www.amazon.com/Rising-Force-Star-Wars-Apprentice/dp/0590519220

I have a bad feeling that this idea won't be received well...

There was a fan-film, Sith Apprentice, that was a parody of Trump's the Apprentice, where Maul, Dooku, and Vader all competed to be the Sith Apprentice. It was really funny.
