Not a series, but a great one-off video by Gary Bernhardt, A Raw View into my Unix Hackery, linked below. I haven't bought his courses, but based on what I've seen of his talks and free material, they may get you part of the way (but I don't think all of the way) to what you're describing.

If anyone has taken his courses, I'm sure they could give better feedback on those. Either way, watch the video.
