The Purge (2018–2019)
3/10
Gave it plenty of time.....
3 October 2018
But just couldn't continue. I watched the first 4 episodes, hoping against hope that it would get better. It didn't. It was halfway through the 5th episode where I finally shut it off and cancelled the remaining recordings. The "protagonists" (I use that term loosely, as there really isn't a single likable character) make some of the dumbest, over-the-top decisions imaginable, the acting is terrible, writing is sloppy, and the plot is basically multiple different stories that try to make us care about the characters, but fails at every chance.

I gave it plenty of chances to show me different, and it kept letting me down. Too bad, too. It's a concept that, if done correctly, would have made for a good limited-run series.
