Wow, what a great idea! I would love that! And to repeat the follow-up  
question, is anybody already doing that?

I think this is a great idea. Some of us are trying to get "Languages  
across the curriculum" programs going at our institutions, but there  
aren't enough students ready for advanced courses in various  
disciplines taught in Arabic, and so we can't persuade our  
administrators of the utility of such a program. If there were DVDs  
available, it might be possible to base such a course partly on them.   
I wonder if it would be possible to get several National Resource  
Centers for the Middle East/Arabic to collaborate on planning and  
paying for such a project? If so, count me in!
