Item: The Peacekeeper Wars - Part 1 (5x1)
Language: en-US
Type of Problem: Duplicate
Extra Details: The two episodes listed as Season 5 ( https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/4271-farscape/season/5/episode/1 and https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/4271-farscape/season/5/episode/2 ) are not part of the on-going TV show Farscape.
Farscape was cancelled during production of its fourth series and the planned fifth series was never made.

This follow-up series aired as Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars and is already listed on TMDB here: https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/224784-farscape-the-peacekeeper-wars
