Bootqual.
This category, which so far contains only the new "Star Trek" is when a total franchise re-boot disguises itself as a prequal in an effort to not alienate the faithful.
I would have been less alienated if they HAD made it a total reboot, instead of claiming it's in some way part of the same universe as the real Trek. I don't want Sylar-Spock and teen-show-style Kirk and the other fake characters to be in the same universe as the real Trek.
