Jennifer Baker presents this special edition of EU Tweets of the Week on the Commissioners-designate hearings before the European Parliament; looking at the good, the bad and the ugly in the European Union Twittersphere.

• Most debated Commissioners-designate were Miguel Arias Cañete – candidate for Climate Action & Energy – and Alenka Bratušek, designated to become Vice-President for Energy Union
• The good: the #EPhearings2014 buzz on Twitter reached beyond the EU bubble; more than 200,000 tweets in total
• A bad week for Martin Selmayr, Juncker’s chief of staff was blamed for altering Cecilia Malmström’s written answers to the parliament as the document still contained some of his “track changes”
• The ugly: photoshopped movie posters featuring the Commissioners-designate circulated on Twitter ahead of their respective hearings
