You know, specifically on Teal'c - for so much of SG-1 he was essentially wall-paper and the quite hero, the one you saw and heard so little about. By the end of the show he was so much more developed, so he's easier to write now in general.
I think it's also a 'relating' thing. Most people can't relate to being aliens from different worlds trying to fit into Earth Culture.
Not to mention his ships weren't all the USTy and ZOMG GET TOGETHER already, so why would people write about him?
I try to write him; I like Teal'c. Once I even started a story on how he came to be who he is, but I gave it up because I knew so little about his history and culture it was too hard ;)
