They've Got the Horse Right There and It's Real
By ANITA GATES
The producers of "American Dream Derby" have gathered together an awfully good-natured bunch of contestants. In the first episode, tonight at 9 (followed by a second episode at 10) on GSN, the only real grumbling to be heard is the comment "Some people just can rub you the wrong way," made by Tara Walden, a 32-year-old Los Angeles massage therapist. She is talking about Sara Slavin, a 24-year-old model from West Milford, N.J. Yes, this reality show actually acknowledges that people have last names, but maybe that's just because there are two Taras in the show. (The other is a ranch owner from Nevada.)

Scott Stone, Sharon Levy, Anthony Ross, Kathy Sutula are Executive Producers. Tim Warren is the Director.

"American Dream Derby" makes a horse race out of the reality game show elimination genre in every sense of the term. Set at the historic Santa Anita racetrack, "Derby" pits 12 contestants -- some horse aficionados and some with absolutely no horse sense -- against each other. After the usual eliminations, alliances, accusations and bizarre challenges -- along with call-in votes that allow players to be reinstated -- eight contestants will select a horse that runs during a live telecast Feb. 21. To the winner goes $250,000 and a stable of thoroughbreds.

The show, from Stone & Company Entertainment, is well cast. The players are a diverse lot and provide the necessary ingredients of snappy comments and superheated emotion. What's more, as in the better reality shows, there's some worthwhile information to be gleaned from viewing, some of which could come in handy later at track windows.

Scorecard, Under Review
By S.P.
BEHIND THE WHEEL On May 14, FX debuts NASCAR Drivers: 360, an hourlong weekly series that follows the personal and professional lives of some of the sport's biggest names. While many program promise unfettered access to athletes, this show actually delivers the goods. The premiere features genuinely tender and awkward moments in the households of drivers Kevin Harvick, Kenny Wallace and Rusty Wallace.

Television Review, NASCAR Drivers: 360
By ANNE DONAHUE
There's a joke among the uninitiated about what NASCAR stands for: No Athletic Skill, Centered Around Rednecks. FX's "NASCAR Drivers: 360" seeks to remedy this stereotype and give a behind-the-scenes look at the drivers on the mammoth-ticket Nextel and merely big-ticket Busch racing circuits. Bowing on mucho macho FX right after this week's coverage of the Busch series race from Richmond, Va., docu's focus on family life may convince the wives of NASCAR dads to stay tuned after the race.
