Let me preface that I don't know much about any of these stuff.
I imagined a giant pitcher of water slowly filling up the earth.
A flooded earth sounds interesting, are there other planets out there that are overflowing with water?
If there are, that might be what would happen.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europa_(moon) , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ganymede_(moon) .
Within our solar system, these two moons carry a lot of water. Both very cool planetary objects, but not one of them is overflowing like in your imagined planet. We can't really study planets outside of our own neighborhood in high (enough?) detail yet, so this is it for now :P
Overflowing in what sense?
Enough water to overcome the surface tension that keeps it from spilling off the edge of the plane^t^.
Ain't no planet X comin' since ain't no space 'cause ain't not globe earth.
Kamino planet sure has a lot of water
