VIDEO : 'The Purge' TV Series Gets Premiere Date

The **Purge** franchise is headed to the small screen.
Comicbook.com reports the TV series will debut on USA on September 4th.
In the series, the government has implemented an annual day in which all violent crimes are legal.
?I?d say it?s 70, 65 percent Purge Night and then 30 percent flashback. We follow four what-seem-to-be separate storylines of people going out on the evening and experiencing the Purge. The real estate of the 10 hours of the TV allows us to use flashback, where we flashback out of the Purge world, into the regular lives, the non-Purge days, of this future America." Creator James DeMonaco
**The First Purge** also hits theaters this summer.
