Jim Lampley will host NBC's daytime Olympics coverage from Athens, and Pat O'Brien will host the morning show on Bravo during the 2004 Games.
David Neal, the network's Olympics executive vice president, made the announcements Tuesday.
Lampley tied ABC's Jim McKay with his 12th Olympic assignment.
Previously, Bob Costas was picked to host NBC's prime-time Athens coverage and Keith Olbermann was chosen as MSNBC's Olympic host.
"We are thrilled to add two more all-star Olympic anchors to our team in Athens," Neal said. "This speaks to the premier nature of the Olympics that it continues to attract the most gifted people in the industry. This sets the Olympics apart as the most important sports event in the world."
