They (people from Parker Lewis) actually wrote in a joke for the character saying Ferris Bueller was an unauthorized knock off on him (Parker Lewis). This despite the fact FB came first. Just a little extra humor thrown in cuz they knew PL would be compared to FB.
But then the Ferris Bueller tv show did the same thing using the tv Ferris saying the movie was about his own life with Matthew Broderick doing an adequate portrayal of himself (Charlie Schlatter as Ferris).
"Ferris Beuller" was based on the famous movie starring Matthew Broderick. "Parker Lewis" came after but was tons funnier.
