You watch them do their thing on television on a daily basis. They’re usually attractive, personable, and outgoing, all the things you look for in a partner. Those TV anchors have got it going on! Which begs the question: do you ever wonder how they would be on a date? News anchors have such a serious and heavy job that it kind of makes you wonder if they’re equally as serious in their down time, or if they’d be more laid-back and relaxed. Check out 10 famous news anchors people would love to date.

1. Katie Couric: This 55 year old beauty has done it all. She has anchored the CBS Evening News, reported for 60 minutes, Dateline NBC, ABC World News, Nightline, 20/20… need I go on? She’s also a published author, which is just one more testament to her intelligence. She’s witty and sharp, comes equipped with a beautiful smile, and would probably be a lot of fun to take out on a date.
2. Erica Hill: She co-anchored CBS This Morning, co-anchored The Early Show, and anchored for CNN, Headline News and TechTV. She’s both beautiful and funny, and not afraid of letting her playful side come out on air. Add to that the fact that she’s well-educated as well, and it’s obvious she’d be the total package in a date.
3. Courtney Friel: This blond bombshell is not afraid to use her assets if you know what I mean. She reports the news for Fox and has been the sports anchor for GoTV as well as a host for the World Poker Tour on the Travel Channel. At only 32 she has an impressive laundry list of accomplishments that take her far beyond just a pretty face. Who wouldn’t want to talk poker or sports with this beauty?

She was the sports anchor for WDAM in Mississippi; she joined ESPN as a sportscaster in 1990, and has received 3 Emmy Awards for her work on ESPN. Now she is the co-anchor of Good Morning America with George Stephanopoulos. What more could a guy want in a girl than someone who can talk sports and really know what’s going on?
