Fairly new fan here -- I was living in California for a few years and then moved back to my hometown where I am now staying with my Mom while job searching. She had gotten into the show through reruns while I was gone and it became one of those mother-daughter things pretty quickly. The funniest thing though, and I hope that I am not alone, is that because ION and A&E so thoughtfully play the episodes out of order, I thought for awhile that Elle and Emily were the same person. Of course since I've gone from a casual viewer to a much more interested one, I've definitely grown to know that they are VERY different.
