Report: CBS ‘Star Trek’ Series Returning to Original Franchise Continuity

Abrams reboot films, return to the original timeline, or perhaps exist independent of both. Now, reports suggest that not only is the original continuity back in play, we know which Star Trek properties the new CBS iteration will fall between.
