Jeopardy! fans can't get enough of a moment from season 40 where host Ken Jennings did a perfect impersonation of one of Cardi B 's most popular sayings. The game show took to Instagram to ask fans what their favorite memory for the most recent season.
One fan shared hers, writing: "My favorite moment was when there was a clue about Cardi B and Ken said, "Okurrr." Jeopardy! then shared a clip calling the moment an "honorable mention" for a highlight of season 40. In the clip, Contestant Iris Masucci chose the "Sampling" category for $1,200.
"Okurr," Ken says at the start of the clip. "This woman samples the Boogaloo song "I Like It Like That" on a 2018 hit." To which, Iris quickly responded: "Who is Cardi B?"

Fans reacted to the moment on social media, flooding the comments with laughing emojis. "HAHAH LOVE IT," a fan commented.
"Mocked that R trill better than I," one fan wrote. "How long do you think Ken practiced that?" another added.
While fans gave the host props for imitating the "Money" rapper so well, it wasn't Ken who took the initiative to throw in an interpretation of the rapper. The clue was seemingly written to include her signature "Okurr" for the host to read.
But some fans wondered if the "Okurr," which Cardi popularized gave away the answer. "Why he gave her the hint?" one fan asked, and someone responded, "It’s not a hint, that’s how the clue was written."
Other standout moments from season 40 that fans had to choose from included one with contestant Michael Menkhus, who chose the "Rap Words and Phrases" category at one point.
The clue Ken read was: "Used as an interjection in trap music, this voweless word conveys the sound of screeching." Michael quickly responded, saying "What is 'Skrrt'?" with a bit of a lean.
One fan commented on the moment, and wrote: "I appreciate how Michael said 'Skrrt' with such enthusiasm."
Another added: "Hip-hop jeopardy, always and forever."
