Sextuplets Take New York Today Show Interview: Meet the Carpio Sextuplets (Video)
Sextuplets Take New York premieres on TLC
Sextuplets Take New York premieres tonight, September 14, on TLC – and this morning, Today show’s Natalie Morales had the pleasure of interviewing Victor and Digna Carpio.
Watch the Today show interview video of the Carpio family featured on Sextuplets Take New York – anyone else having a flashback to when Natalie interviewed the clan from Raising Sextuplets? While the Carpio kids weren’t quite the handful that the Masche kids were, it still was a fairly hectic interview. In fact, I was so distracted by the Carpio sextuplets, that I could barely focus on what was being said in the interview.
The Sextuplets Take New York premiere introduces viewers to Victor and Digna Carpio, their 9-year-old son and six 22-month old babies.
Needless to say, their little house is hectic!
The question on Kate Plus 8 fans’ minds though: will the Carpio family replace the Gosselins?
TLC is promoting the Carpio babies (four boys, two girls) as America’s first Latino sextuplets. In a promo video for the new series, Victor says, “We don’t know how we do it,” while his wife adds, “Our life is loco. Crazy.”
Here’s hoping the Carpios keep it real and don’t turn into fame hungry Jon and Kate Gosselin.
Will you watch Sextuplets Take New York? If you watched the show, what do you think?

Dona Morales commented on Sep 14 10 at 11:55 pmI loved the first show of them. they were great. A much more loving and balanced family than the gosslins ever were. Really hope to see much more of them.
Linda commented on Sep 15 10 at 9:28 amWhat a beautiful family! Good luck, and make New York proud!
Sandra commented on Sep 15 10 at 11:11 amI loved seeing this episode and can’t wait to continue seeing them. It’s refreshing to see a real couple for once. As a viewer I was touched by the older son and I felt the love which now a days you can’t really say that about other’s shows.
Yoryina commented on Sep 15 10 at 12:42 pmWOW I LOVE THIS SHOW!! IS THE TRUE REALITY HOW HARD IS TO RAISE A FAMILY, KEEP GOING GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING, AND I LOVE HOW DIGNA IS!!!!!!
Ashley commented on Sep 15 10 at 3:46 pmI love this show. All of the kids are so cute and the oldest boy is amazing. He’s so helpful, loving, and seems like an all around great kid and a great big brother. The couple is adorable and you can tell they truly love each other and are REAL partners. Amazing! Love this show. I’d love to keep watching it, but I need TLC to get rid of Sister Wives. That show makes me want to boycott TLC altogether.
Maritza commented on Sep 15 10 at 5:50 pmI love the show look like real people ,and is far away from the other show Kate plus eight. She seems natural , friendly and nice . I hope to see more the just a season!!!!!
rachel commented on Sep 15 10 at 11:11 pmSo refreshing to see a family like this on TV….keep it coming! I want more.
Susan commented on Sep 17 10 at 11:34 amIf TLC is smart, it will totally replace Kate + 8 with this loving and genuine family, something Kate and Jon never were and Kate will never be. I can’t wait for more of the Carpio family.
Cynthia Griffith commented on Sep 17 10 at 4:40 pmI am sooo over Kate Plus 8. LOVED the Carpios — what a sweet, genuine, loving family! Jhuan Carlos is an wonderful little boy and amazing big brother. I hope he always keeps that sweet spirit. I can really feel for Digna and Victor and yet it is obvious how much they love their children and are doing their best for them. My children and grandchildren who live in Ecuador and I know the country and the culture so this show really resonated with me. TLC–please keep the Carpios around for a long time!
sandy commented on Sep 21 10 at 10:58 pmI love this family, they are so refreshing to watch. I tune in a minute late to ensure I do not have to watch Kate. The Carpios are so sweet and so genuine and love their family it a joy to watch.

April Arnett commented on Sep 22 10 at 3:55 amIt’s so refreshing to see a “real” family, that cares so much about the family unit, on TLC. I rate the Caprios right up there with the 19 Kids and Counting family. Good people.
The Caprios are so loving and tender-hearted. I hope to see some generous viewers maybe make donations to the Carpios, the way people did for the Duggar family. The Carpios were so thankful to be getting a van, though very concerned about the $600 monthly payment. Would love to have seen a dealership donate a new van to them. You can tell they are the kind of people that would be very grateful. I’m sure with the expenses that come with raising 7 children in New York, the Carpios could use any help and obviously, they are the kind of people who would really appreciate it. I can’t wait to watch the next episode and I wish only good things for this sweet family. If I lived in Queens, I would offer to babysit so the Carpios and their 9-year old son could spend the day together, just the three of them. It was so touching when Victor broke down crying as he talked about not being able to spend enough time with his son. God Speed Carpios! You’ve won my heart and I will definitely be watching each week and hoping for only good things for your family.
kim commented on Sep 22 10 at 9:34 amEnjoy this show very much. They are such a loving and humble family. The joy and happines they have for each other is a pleasure to watch. Those children will grow up to be loving and happy and humble like there parents. Unlike another family show witch should be taken off the air!!!! Love the Carpios and wish them happiness!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eliene commented on Sep 22 10 at 11:36 amThank God for this show. TLC has to do more shows like that, real life , real people not those who want to use television to show up and make money like Kate plus 8. I really love it the Carpios and the all America is proud of a channel where family can watch and learn for good examples.
niya commented on Sep 22 10 at 1:12 pmI love this family! Please, TLC, do yourselves a favor and GET RID of Kate and her 8! We’re over them now. The Duggars are great, the Carpios are great, and what happened to the Coles? Were they too real for reality tv?
maritlyn commented on Sep 22 10 at 5:14 pmI love this family! TLC good Job!
Rebecca Olivares de Leon commented on Sep 22 10 at 5:56 pmI Love this program, they are so real. I love the way Digna is with her children. They are very humble and loving people. I love the spanglish they speak. Que Dios los bendiga! Please always be the humble people that you are and don’t let this show change you.
Dorothy Decker commented on Sep 28 10 at 11:31 pmI like to watch this delightful family. They are much better family idea and the Kate plus 8. All her new season she is parading around in short shorts and her boops showing. This mother is pretty and dresses pretty but doesn’t need to be a SEX Goddess like Kate. I am sick of the Kate show. Welcom Victor and Digna
MJ commented on Sep 29 10 at 8:11 pmLove this show. The mom and dad have a great sense of humor and respect and love each other. That’s what kids really need to see.
Tanya commented on Sep 30 10 at 11:55 pmI LOVE THE WHOLE FAMILY!!!! I cant wait to see more of them. I hope TLC keeps them on. Digna and Victor you are doing a fantastic job with your kids dont let anyone make you feel any different. I love that they are humble and loving people, and will be there number 1 fann. Good Luck and God Bless

Jackie commented on Oct 05 10 at 10:39 pmI LOVE THIS SHOW! the carpio family is so awsome.. pretty cool !!! finally a REAL family that is not fake like Kate plus 8
Bonnie commented on Oct 07 10 at 10:48 pmWhat a pleasure to watch the Capio family. They are so real, loving, and caring to each other and their children. I only wish I could help them out, but I don’t have the funds. They brought tears to my eyes when Victor in New York expressed how lucky they were to live in this country. More people should go by his great example and enjoy what we have not what we don’t. I can’t wait to see more of this wonderful family. God Bless you all and stay true to yourself.
KIM commented on Oct 08 10 at 2:49 pmWe love, love, love this family! Love Digna and Victor and JC is such a doll!!!!!! PLEASE keep this show on. America NEEDS to see this family! They are precious!
Ashley commented on Oct 09 10 at 12:34 amLove this family!! Love the show… they seem to be greatful for all the wonderful gifts they have received with these 6 babies and especially Jhuan Carlos. What a true reality show… I love how Digna shows her emotions and is not acting! Victor seems to be a great father and supportive husband and Jhuan Carlos is an awesome son and big brother! God Bless this family!!! Such a proud, uplifting, True American Dream family!!!
Cherlyn commented on Oct 14 10 at 11:59 amI absolutely love this family! My entire family watches this show. I remember when the babies were born and at that time I could see that this family was very much different from the other sextuplet families. The Carpio’s are very grounded, nurturing, and it is very evident that Victor and Digna love each other very much. I remember watching the episode when Jaden was possibly diagnosed with cerebral palsy and he ended up showing the doc’s that he will be just fine and stood up in the playpen on his own. I was in tears! Looking forward to many more episodes and watching these absolutely adorable babies grow! Wonderful and blessed family!
Ofelia commented on Oct 19 10 at 2:57 pmI’m in love with the family already I can’t wait to watch and learn more from this hard working family
SANDRA PROIA commented on Nov 13 10 at 2:34 amLOVE IT WHAT DAY IS IT ON CANNOT FINE IT AGAIN
Bonnie commented on Nov 16 10 at 10:26 amI always watched the show. Did I miss when the program comes on, I haven’t seen it in awhile. Could someone tell me if it is still being taped, when does it come on? I already miss seeing this show.
