Oh, how delightful that somebody actually has read these over here. I was beginning to wonder...
I'm glad you enjoyed them. Yeah, we do forget that George had met them before, although the fact always rears its inconvenient head in my mind everytime I rewatch The Enemy Within, and Hammond has such a deliberate and measured reaction to Colonel Kennedy. There's really no full court press, no wholehearted backing of Teal'c until he proves his worth. It makes perfect sense from a production standpoint why there wouldn't be [Well of course not, 1969 hadn't been written or even conceived of at that point. Duh!], but knowing how Hammond is a bulldog in defense of his people, and knowing that he's seen them all together as a team, it's all just jarring. I just want to yell at the screen "Writers, you got it wrong! It didn't really go down like that!"
I guess that's why God created fanfic writers, to fix all those details that were filmed wrong (or inelegantly) in canon.
