Am I making too much of this? I can't be the only one who has noticed a striking similarity between the character "Phil" on the new Jack-In-The-Box commercials and Michael Schiavo.

For those who haven't seen the latest, acting company CEO Phil is telling Jack -- who is in a coma after getting hit by a bus -- "I know you can't hear me, but . . " and then tells Jack the changes he plans to make to the company, including changing the name to Phil-In-The-Box.

Of course, Jack can hear everything . . .

I'm assuming the producers didn't plan on making Phil look like Schiavo, but it did send shivers up my spine.

Here's the video:

Here's Schiavo on Larry King:

You tell me. Am I making too much of this?
