Report: Katie Couric May Return to ‘Today,’ as Meredith Vieira Expected to Leave the Show

Sep 30, 2010  •  Post A Comment

Katie Couric may return to her old stomping ground on the "Today" show when her "CBS Evening News" contract expires in May, reports the New York Post’s Page Six.

The article adds the spot is expected to open up because "Today" co-host Meredith Vieira is expected to leave the program to spend more time with her family.

While Couric had been talking with Jeff Zucker, who had been her producer at the show before he became CEO of NBC Universal, his departure from the company doesn’t rule out the move for Couric, the story says.

  1. Wow CBS sure looks great for filling katies’ bank account for her & now she can crawl back to the today show & pretend that nothing ever happened! At least now she knows she can’t run with the big dogs anymore!

  2. WEll this sounds like a smart move on the surface, but I still can’t stand the Today show after years of listening sinvce it started. The ’empty suits’ and the would-be comedians turned me off several years ago, and Katie coming back probably won’t change much. Oh, did I mention the so-called “Music Fridays?”
    wretch wretch

  3. couric sucks no
    matter where she goes

  4. I LOVE THE TODAY SHOW ITS UPBEAT AND ALL THE MEMBERS OF THE SHOW ARE THE VERY BEST. I LOVE MEREDITH AND DON,T WANT HER TO RETIRE AS SHE, MATT,AL AND ANN MAKE THE NEWS A PLEASANT TIME OF THE DAY.

  5. Meredith does not come across as genuine, and Ann Curry has a bad habit of talking way too fast, slurring her words together and talking over her interviewees. Natalie Morales is the best female on the show, HANDS DOWN. I would return to the Today Show in the mornings if they brought back Katie as she was a much better fit for the format.

  6. i can’t stand meredith. she seems SO self conscious and depressed. her nervous, phony laugh is annoying. just seems lifeless and joyless–a horrible interviewer. almost any of the other women there would be SO much better. time to go meredith…bye, bye…

  7. Nice!! Great Ifo. Great People. Great Blog. Thank you for all the great sharing that is being done here.
