Couric Back on "Today"...Sort Of

Do not be fooled: This morning's splendid post-Memorial day tease on "Today" is just a tease. Yes, Katie Couric will be back on "Today" to make a "major announcement" tomorrow morning but it's not a particularly big deal at all - or let me rephrase, not a big deal of the "career" variety. A TVNewser tipster says that it will be to announce a joint network "telethon" for cancer research (though Newser reasonably asks, why isn't she going on "Early Show?

I love Katie, I miss her on the Today show. Meredith is a fine announcer, but she's doesn't have the sparkle that Katie had. I'd be more of a fan, like I used to be if Katie were there. And as soon as Matt loses the rest of the hair that he's trying to hold on to, they'll dump his crabby butt too.

Loved Katie on Today and cried when she left; however, Meredith is a breath of fresh air. Seems like Matt, Ann and Al are enjoying Meredith's tenure too.

Love both women and hope they are on Today together for the cancer announcement since Meredith's husband has had two bouts of colon cancer.

I also miss Katie. All 20 of us who comprised her audience were heartbroken when she left. And, she left because she wanted to. I can onhly hope that she comes back to tell us the truth about everything that is going on because she is a cancer survivor.

hey Katie...thanks for helping me out. I am now understanding why i am a sex addicted and after I apper on Jerry Springer, Oprah Windbag and your show next week, I hopes to be writtting a book.

Thanks

You people were "heartbroken" and "cried" when katie left the today show???

You need to get a life.

What will you do when you have a real problem?

Katie is, at best, a 3rd rate weekend anchor fill-in in a small market. The Today show can make anybody look good, because it is a well produced program. Bryant Gumbel is perfect example. A sleep inducing bumbling idiot, yet somehow the show did well. Katie is the same. She is awful. She is not pleasant to look at. Looked bored when she was on Today. Couldn't care less about the people she interviewed. Hopelessy left leaning socialist. Matt Lauer, same deal. Right place at the right time. A mediocre anchor for channel 9. Katie time to hang it up and quit while you are ahead. You got lucky without skill.

Yes I miss Katie and Today is not same , loks to me when she left evrybody is so sand and it is not same with aut her. I whish she come back

Katie is a cold hearted idiot and she has no feelings what soever for people. She could tell a story that is heart wrenching and show no emotions at all.

Sorry, Katie was such a fake on the Today show. I couldnt wait for her to leave. I though it would be a good move for her to jump into an anchor seat but felt Abc would have been better for her than CBS.

Katies so called upbeat personality but tried to tone it down for more serious stories always got on my nerves. "Gee, I just can imagine how this must feel for you, certainly it has to be devestating".

I honestly feel you put Matt Lauer or Ann Curry on CBS an the ratings go through the roof!

Everyone, please! you don't have to be so negative about Katie.
If you don't like her, switch the chanel. It's not the law that you have to watch her, it's an entertainment. You shouldn't use words are not so appropriate. Did any of you watch the movie Bambi?
"If you don't any nice to say, and don't say it at all."

Today Show was always fun to watch becuase Katie & Matt had such a great chemisty on TV, Ann & Al was the completion to the group, it was different with Merideth at the begining but Im getting warmed up to her personality on the show.

Would be nice 2 see Katie back on Today for her announcement?

p.s.
NBC needs to find a new theme song with Matt, Merideth, Ann & Al just like they had the song:
Katie & Matt, Ann and Al first on your TV.................

Miss Katie- I know turn off today show when Jenna Wolf and Kathy Lee come on...what a disappointment

you guys are so lame. get a life.

Katie:

It was great to see you on the Today show yesterday. How soon can you come back? I really miss you! Merideth really needs to go. She doesn't even know how to dress, and has no spunk about herself like you do. I still can't get used to her and I guess I never will at this point (after two years). Please let NBC know that you want to come back. The View really needs Merideth. Did I tell you how much I miss you on the Today show? Please Please come back.

Either CBS or NBC are excellent venues for a lefty like Katie...but perhaps we could wish her into the cornfield (MSNBC) where she will fit in nicely with all of the other squishy left-wing Socialist journalists.

Kathy Lee really has zero tact. Why of all people on the planet did NBC recycle her? I thought when the 4th hour of Today had classy Natalie Morales, it was enjoyable. Now, I turn the show off just because I can't stand to even listen to all of the annoying faces and remarks made by Kathy Lee. I wonder how many hours of the day Kathy spends looking in the mirror at herself? Today needs to bring someone younger, nicer and much more versatile if they want to compete with the View or other shows that broadcast at the same time.
