over the glasses look

When one looks over his glasses at another person to show that he is really LOOKING at that person, and usually connoting disappointment or skepticism. Classicly employed by Lester Freamon on THE WIRE when the brass tries to interfere with one of his investigations.

"Don't be giving me that over the glasses look, I promise I'll never gamble again!"
