WELCOME to all the new H/E Fans here on this Club!!:)So, tell me why do you love them? When did you start liking their ship? Or do you just like their friendship, without shipping them?

I think you know that I have been an Hotch and Emily shipper for a while now, but I am new to fanpop so I am answering this question. I love them because of their onscreen chemistry, and those glances here and they're are great. I first started watching Criminal Minds when I bought season 3, and for the episode In Name and Blood, I was like, "What's going on here? Is there something I should know about?" And after that episode I started looking at them a different way. They would be so amazing together, and since it's Paget's last season maybe they could give the fans what they want: H/P!

Hi Colette! Thanks for the welcome!
Well I've only recently become a Hotch and Emily shipper! I just bought season 4 on DVD and have watched all the episodes and the episode that made me love them instantly was "Minimal Loss". When Emily is trapped inside and being beaten up and Hotch can't listen to it anymore and looks like he is going to cry! That just made me realise that he really cares for her! And I have loved them since! And Paget and Thomas have great chemistry on screen which makes their realtionship believable!

Hi! My name is Kennedy and I consider myself a fairly dedicated H/E shipper! I have loved them since I started watching the show, I noticed the chemistry almost immediately. I write fanfic quite a bit, but have never posted in this fandom. I would love to post some here if anyone is interested. Anyway, I haven't been very active on fanpop for a while but I'm getting back into it and am looking to finally thank some of the fans for amazing posts to the club! :)

Well I'm definitely a noob to H/E and Criminal Minds. I've only watched a few episodes but love the show and think Hotch ad Emily would make a great couple! Don't really know why yet lol. They work together great and seem to really like/trust each other which is always a good thing the base a romantic relationship on. They just seem well matched for each other and are hott together. Friends, partners, lovers, whatever I love them together! :D

Ive always loved them and i think they should actually be a couple.

Just got into the show over the summer and have all the DVDs (1-5), watch all.I don't know when I started liking HP. before getting the dvd's,I watched episodes out of order (most season 1 on surfthechannel) and saw the Viper episode randomly and I liked the moment there.
in the DVD, I adored Emily because she came in all bubbly and excited to start working at the BAU, but Hotch was so cold at first. Anyway, I liked their first meeting too and I love their scenes in season 2 (mainly episodes 9 and 11), 3 (yes,especially 3x02), 4, and 5. btw,has TG ever said anything about HP? I know Paget mentioned the director told her to "stop looking at Hotch like she was in love with him" but what about TG?
whoo. long answer. sorry
