Guess Salem is 200 years old on 11/9/2015 – since 11/8 is a Sunday?!

Good nod to the show’s birthday – very cute.

The USA celebrated its bicentennial in 1976 (1776–1976).

Salem is 200. Bi meaning 2 and centennial meaning 100 years. 2 x 100 = 200.

No a bicentennial is 200 years. The show is "celebrating" the founding of Salem, 200 years ago. Guess it is their way of doing the 50th for the show.

A bicentennial is 200 years. I’m assuming that is how the show is tipping its hat to DOOL’s real 50 year anniversary. I dunno why they picked a bicentennial – but I guess they couldn’t say Salem was 50 years old since the show started with the Horton’s already in place.

I knew a centennial was 100 years, so I took the Bi-Centennial to mean half of that. Duh, Patti!

a Semisentenniel. Also used, although a less recognized word, is Quinquagenary. I learned that when our church had its 50th anniversary. Some of the people wanted to call it a Semisentenniel and others a Quinquagenary. The Semisentenniel won out.
