I'm not afraid to say it: this season, so far, is the best that has ever happened to The Purge Franchise. This season doesn't only provide interesting characters and plot lines but also covers the biggest plot holes of the entire series. Why does everyone stop purging after the sirens? Because there's a whole agency behind it that seeks after scapegoats to show everyone how it's crucial to follow the rules. How it come that there are almost no crimes thanks to the Purge? Well, it's because there are crimes and the government just covers them because they need the Purge night for other purposes and so on. The second season also expands the universe, showing us what happens for the rest of the year along with customs and traditions that appeared in the world where each year, all crimes are legal during 12 hours.
I really hope the rest of the season holds up.
