Having watched both parts multiple times, I can only assume that IMDB's 8.9 rating is due to loading by friends of those who made the series.
The acting and direction aren't bad. The writing, editing, and cinematography, however...
If you're filming a series about a woman fighting crime at night, and that even has the word "Night" in the title, it might be a good idea to invest in the equipment and personnel to actually film at night--instead of the obvious day-for-night that infests every park scene.
If your story involves hospital and (especially) police procedure, then take the time to learn what those procedures actually are. That way, you don't have a hospital that releases a concussed attempted victim who is having hallucinations, without counseling and WITH head wounds that are still bleeding a week later. You also won't have a police detective who proves incapable of capturing a murderer who he's been after for quite a while, even when he has the element of surprise; who waits more than a week to get a statement from the only living witness; who apparently does composite sketches himself; and who does nothing about a woman who states her intent to interfere in a police investigation as a vigilante, even after she assaults him when he tries to keep her from interfering.
But mostly...if you're filming a series that's advertised as being about a woman who gains superhuman strength, then show her using superhuman strength. Nothing Riva does in the series shows any level of extreme strength. Nothing. Nada.
