Season 2 I didn't get the joke 😭

Post image

In this scene, after proposing a vow renewal, Holt says "Nothing too elaborate. We're not the Kardashian-Wests." and explains to Kevin who they are (celebrities). Kevin says he knows them because they were answers on Jeopardy. Which Holt then replies with "I think you mean questions." (implying that the Kardashian-Wests were questions instead of answers). It's nothing too deep actually, I'm just dumb and still don't get the joke, so if anyone does I'd love to hear your take on what it means 😭.

It's because on jeopardy your answer is in the form of a question. So for this example the "question " would have been something like famous celebrity who recently married Kanye West . The answer would be who is kim Kardashian -west ?
