Roseanne character dies of opioid overdose as ‘The Conners’ take over
NEW YORK — One of television’s best-known families returned on Tuesday without its matriarch, as the character of feisty Roseanne Conner was killed off through an accidental opioid overdose.Comedy series “The Conners,” featuring all the main characters in the blue-collar family from “Roseanne” except for its star and creator, Roseanne Barr, had its premiere on Disney-owned channel ABC, five months after “Roseanne” was canceled following a racist tweet by Barr.Audiences had last seen Roseanne Conner hiding an opioid addiction stemming from knee pain and about to undergo long-delayed, costly surgery.“We regret that ABC chose to cancel Roseanne by killing off the Roseanne Conner character.

Building a lifelong love of opera in toddlers, one hop at a time
LONDON — Two-year-old Emily is already on her way to a lifetime love of Opera. She particularly likes the hopping. Welcome to London’s Royal Opera House, where Opera Dots, a workshop for toddlers, aims to build a future fan base, one hop at a time. Beneath an elegant iron-and-glass ceiling, a group of young guests giggle on a multicolored play mat as they mimic a costumed performer singing and dancing her way through ‘Hansel and Gretel’. Some of the children do boisterous impressions of a scary witch, luring the innocent pair into her house of sweets. According to its annual reports, attendance at the Royal Opera House has fallen by 137,000 since 2013. The opera aims to turn the tide, by making the art more accessible to young people — even very young people. The course begins...

Robot’s debut in UK parliament invites ‘Maybot’ mockery
LONDON — A walking and talking robot appeared in Britain’s parliament for the first time on Tuesday, prompting Twitter users to seize the chance to heap more mockery on Theresa May.

MPs on the education committee invited a robot named Pepper — a white female creation with an excruciatingly thin waist and a tablet computer stuck to her chest — to answer some basic questions. Asked whether humans would have a place in a brave new world where AI reigns supreme, Pepper responded in a reassuring voice. “Robots will have an important role to play, but we will always need the soft skills that are unique to...
