"Consider this your invitation!\r\nKatie Couric is gearing up for the big premiere of her upcoming talk show, Katie.\r\n\r\nIn a new promo video exclusive to Us Weekly, the 55-year-old former CBS Evening News anchor, Couric visits parks, malls and parking lots to pass out invitations to watch her new show.\r\n&amp;quot;Don&amp;apos;t forget to watch!&amp;quot; she says. &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s going to be fun!&amp;quot;&amp;#xA0;\r\n\r\nCouric recently told Jay Leno that her new show will be &amp;quot;sort of a little bit of what Oprah [Winfrey] did.&amp;quot;\r\n&amp;quot;Obviously, no one can ever fill Oprah&amp;apos;s shoes,&amp;quot; she added. &amp;quot;But some of the things that she did on her show, some of the things we used to do on the TODAY Show.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nThe journalist left NBC&amp;apos;s TODAY in 2006 after 15 years as co-host to join CBS, but she&amp;apos;s ready to go back to her daytime roots.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I&amp;apos;m really looking forward to it because, creatively, it&amp;apos;s such an exciting challenge for me, and I think I&amp;apos;m better at interacting and talking to people and synthesizing complicated subjects -- I hope -- and you know doing interviews that require some empathy,&amp;quot; Couric told Leno. &amp;quot;On the [CBS] Evening News, it was hard to do that in that very structured format.\r\nKatie premieres on Sept. 10 in national syndication."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
