Ratings Analysis: ABC sitcom 'The Wonder Years' closed out season two by losing a hundredth at 9 p.m. (0.22, -0.01), even as 'Judge Steve Harvey' (0.30, +0.02) grew by two-hundredths. Things got even worse at 9:30 p.m. when 'Wonder Years' (0.18, -0.04) lost another fistful of Nielsens for its Disney-themed finale. The comedy ultimately went out with a whimper as it led into a 10 p.m. rerun of 'The Rookie' (0.11). On Fox, 'Gordon Ramsay's Food Stars' (0.25, +0.03) enjoyed a nice uptick for its finale and retained a solid amount of a sinking 'MasterChef' (0.32, -0.02). CBS powerhouse 'Big Brother' (0.62, +0.06) grew significantly from Sunday's episode (0.56) and was only a hundredth behind last Wednesday's outing. But, even though it easily topped the night, 'Brother' could not stop 'Superfan' (0.16, -0.06) from taking a sizable post-premiere drop. 'Superfan' retained just 26% of its lead-in and led into another rerun of 'So Help Me Todd' (0.10). The CW's 'Nancy Drew' (0.05, +0.02) picked up two ticks and was followed by a stable 'Riverdale' (0.04, 0.00).
