The "Long Story Short" program that this production was made through is an initiative of both Screen Australian and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
Mike Cowap, Investment Manager at Screen Australia, has said of this their Long Story Short initiative and this production:"The competition for Long Story Short was about as fierce as any funding round ever gets" and the "Closer [Productions] team shone through with this moving, profound, and hilariously well-observed story about family and place, ably supported by their rich body of previous work."
After this production premieres at the Adelaide Film Festival in September 2017 it will be broadcast on Australia's ABC television channel as well as the ABC's iView later in 2017.
Publicity for this production has stated: "Commissioned by the ABC and Screen Australia through their Long Story Short initiative, F*CKING ADELAIDE was one of 6 successful projects out of 290 applicants. The series has received additional funding from the South Australian Film Corporation (SAFC). ABC will premiere F*CKING ADELAIDE online on its iview platform in 2017."
Director Sophie Hyde, in official publicity for this production from 8th December 2016, said: "It's a total delight for me to work with this stunning ensemble cast and to be creating this funny, and at times heartbreaking series in our home-town and alongside the crew we know and trust. It's refreshing to reclaim the jokes about Adelaide and laugh at ourselves while utilising all the things we relish about this city and speaking to the experience of family and home. We are also thrilled to partnering with our investors to create work for ABC's ever more exciting digital platform ABC iview, which gives us the opportunity to be playful with the episodic form and allows audiences to watch whenever they want".
