The Eyebrows Have It

October 29, 2009 by WendyB

As a longtime fan of Law & Order actor Sam Waterston’s magnificent eyebrows, I was thrilled to see them grace the pages of Harper’s Bazaar.

    I was just looking at that last night. It is a gorgeous spread. The hubs and I are addicted to all things L&O. I think CI is our fav though. Maybe SVU. So hard to decide.

    I LOVE this concept. Even more so since I’m watching Law and Order right now. =D

    I love it. We have too much Law and Order here but at least it’s a bit of home.

    I’m responsible for making “Law and Order” accessible for the Russian-language viewers of a certain TV channel here in Israel (and who knows where else) – I translated a whole bunch of the show seasons into Russian. Sam is my fave ADA!

    He’s rather charming(: The men, seem to be able to get away with the silvers in their hair; it’s so unfair!

    I don’t watch Law & Order, I’m more of a shameless reality t.v. addict, but Great Gatsby is one of my favorite all-time movies… I see this and I think, Nick!

    My old law professor Robert Birmingham used to say, “Everything I know about the law, I learned from Law & Order”!

    Love this editorial!

    Ummm… that would be ‘loved’, of course. Although I’m sure Mr. Waterston has lovely lobes as well. So to speak. Hee-hee-hee.

    Love it! I’m obsessed with Law & Order.

    No matter what is going on in the world, no matter what kind of day I’ve had, no matter what time it is- I can always turn on an episode of one of the Law & Orders and the bad guys always gets caught in the end. Wish real life was as dependable!

    people with distinctive eyebrows are so much more interesting than those with perfectly tweezed vogue brows. because of a genetic oddity, my eyebrows are arched different, one is always a bit thicker, the other thinner and sinister. I also get sad when my brows get waxed and I loose the permanently skeptical look haha

    HAPPY SWEET THURSDAY!

    We have here in Germany Mr Waigel (a politican) who looks the same with his eye borwns!;)

    Can´t wait to get my copy of Harper´s!

    FINALLY, those iconic eyebrows get the attention they deserve!

    I have always felt like you can tell so much about a man by looking at his eyebrows. And the bushier, the more personality. That is a great L&O spread in Bazaar. It definitely captured the mood of the show.

  21. Sher says

    October 29, 2009 at 11:45 am

    If those eyebrows were turned down at me….I would confess….guilty ;D

    I’m just a huge fan of Sam’s. Eyebrows and the whole kit! Bring back Angie Harmon and that fabulous make-up – who else can get away with black, black, black eyeliner and charcoal/grey shadow – stunning.

    October 29, 2009 at 1:15 pm

    So iconic!

    P.S.: I prefer the leather gloves too. Yellow leather gloves? Sounds so cool! I have got red, hot pink, olive green, orange, nautical blue, brown, burgundy and black pairs. I’m a huge fan of gloves. =)

    Those really are quite amazing eyebrows.

    Do you still pick your CAPTCHA words mine was rosebud, now I want to watch Citizen Kane and pretend I’m clever.

    He’s got nothing on Eugene Levy.

    One thing about eyebrows you can tell if the curtains match the… wait a minute, eww, Law and Order guy.
    Think of something else. Think of something else.

    He looks a little bit confused about why he’s there. Hasn’t anybody ever told him about his eyebrows?!?!

    Quick, somebody please tell Mr. Law & Order to insure those brows for 1M as they have been declared “magnificent”!!

    The article is a fun read, it’s so witty & funny!

    PS
    You really have a way to keep these anti-spam words very fun and interesting. It makes me want to comment here just so I could enter “cherries” and “hungry”…

    October 30, 2009 at 8:00 am

    LOL – I love her hair too!! And I have my L&O moments, sometimes I’m in the mood, sometimes – eh!

    Speaking of the Bazaar article…I remember a certian someone wearing an all leather look and it was pretty damn FIERCE!

    XOXO

    I love S.W.’s brows. They’re almost more expressive than his entire face! He looked great in that feature.

  40. K @ Blog Goggles says

    October 30, 2009 at 9:21 pm

    That’s hilarious and amazing. I always loved him, too. Not necessarily for his eyebrows, but because he was just such a GOOD guy. Hard to find these days 🙂

    I saw this and wished it was the cast of SVU. Not hating on Sammy boy, I love him. When I got to thinking I figured sex crimes and child abuse probably aren’t as glamourous as murders and robberies in a magazine spread. Yikes. Haha.
