Blast From the Past

The Today Show will end 2013 by going back to the past.

On Monday, Dec. 30, former TODAY anchors Bryant Gumbel and Jane Pauley will join Matt Lauer to co-anchor the show.

It'll be like old times for Gumbel and Pauley. Gumbel left the TODAY in 1997 after 15 years in an anchor slot, and Pauley left in 1989 after 13 years, the last seven of them as Gumbel's co-anchor.

But their reunion next Monday won't be the first time they've gotten back behind the anchor desk. 

Former Today Show anchor Ann Curry is not invited.
