Everybody's once favorite morning cup of coffee now least watched evening news anchor (and also toothy mother of
two), Katie Couric, will return to the "Today Show" Wednesday. Her
former colleague Matt Lauer made the announcement today and everybody's
going crazy.
We all knew her days at CBS Evening News were
numbered. But a return to the show that launched a thousand mornings
for us and a career for her? Too good to be true.
Indeed, it is. Her return is likely just for one segment and also alongside nasally Brian Williams and blah Charles Gibson. The threesome will be making joint appearances all around New York City that day. What results will be filmed and repackaged into a special, "Stand Up to Cancer." It is scheduled to air this fall.

The broadcast, "Stand Up To Cancer," will air on Sept. 5 on ABC, CBS
and NBC and will feature live performances by recording artists and
movie and film stars who will, along with the evening news anchors from
each of the networks, deliver information about potentially life-saving
cancer research.
Is this going to replace that Jerry Lewis telethon?
Question: What IS Katie Couric going to do when her evening news career ends sooner rather than later? Will she really swap jobs with CNN's Anderson Cooper?
