Having documented the Gosselins and their eight children in Jon and Kate Plus 8, TLC is launching a new reality television show, this time following the trials and tribulations of a couple and their sextuplets, RadarOnline.com has learned.

It will be called Sextuplets Take New York.

The show will follow Victor and Digna Carpio as they raise their seven babies, plus their nine-year-old son. "The Carpio sextuplets, America’s first Latino sextuplets, are ready for their close-up, if they can sit still for that long!" the network revealed in a press release.

"Now 22 months old, these four boys and two girls have just mastered the art of walking and will soon be talking - in two languages."

The show will hit the air on September 14 and is set to keep viewers, and the parents, on their toes.

"From 50 diaper changes to three homemade hot meals a day, to balancing doctor's appointments, tennis practice, tutoring, and homework, Victor and Digna certainly have their hands full," the press release continued.

"Born weighing less than two pounds each and given little to no chance for survival, the Carpio sextuplets are six little miracles."

The show will take the 10pm ET/PT slot and TLC have already bought eight episodes.



He brings home 1500. IF they need special formula that's $250x6 a month which is 1500$ for formula alone. These people will need government assistance. We know tlc doesn't pay newbies very much

I've heard these parents are struggling financially. WHY I ask... would they purposely undergo fertility treatments knowing full well the potential for multiples?

Because you want a child so bad you take that risk.

Who said they did go under fertility treatment? Gosselins weren't exactly rich and did it without any extended family help. At least these guys have a family much involved helping.

Statistically, fertility treatments will result in one fetal pregnancy. Multiples are an anomaly. Celine Dion has had fertility treatments several times. She got lucky 9 years ago with one child and she is pregnant with one child now.

Celine Dion had Renes sperm implanted....that is not fertility treatments. Same way Octomom had hers.

IUI (sperm insertion) is considered a fertility treatment of sorts. The sperm is washed and by passes what could be normally a toxic environment to it. Nadya did not do this. Her eggs were fertilized outside of the womb.

What a lovely family. I just pray that this family doesn't go through the hate fest that like Kate has gone through.
I don't understand that level of hatred and personally I like Kate and her children. Good luck to the Carpios.

People started hating on Kate when she changed and decided her career was more important than the 8 kids she brought into this world. She is more concerned with her looks and the camera than her babies. :)
